Russian military base found on the border with Estonia
2008-04-07 14:59:00 If you look at the Google Earth map and follow the route A-212 to the west of the Russian town Pskov, you can notice a secret Russian military base not far from the border with Estonia. The Economist magazine states that to the north of the road you can see an oval that is nothing but a “shadow from the satellite dish f at least 66 feet diameter” with 5 small and 1 medium dishes situated nearby. Six years ago the place where today the base stands was empty. The magazine also states that this object isn’t listed in any catalogs. This means that the base was built recently. Read More…

Danger Signs on the Border
2008-03-24 16:53:00 A tip of the hat (actually, two tips) to Todd Bensman of the San Antonio Express-News for two articles (one in his paper and one one his website) on the reality that Islamist terrorists have crossed the U.S. border, and are likely to do so again. Bensman is one of the few investigative journalists left with a staff job who takes these investigations seriously. As much of newspaper world, in particular, slash their investigative capabilities, these gems will grow ever more rare. Bensman looks at the...(read more)

KMK Doesn?t Like On the Border
2008-01-08 02:25:00 It’s not really an in-depth review from our friend Phoenix Storm at Kiss My Kimchi, but it’s an impression I expected.

On a positive note, it may be a hopeful trend of Mexican-inspired cuisine actually sticking in ...
On The Border - Northridge, CA
2007-12-24 23:34:00 The Mrs. and I were shopping at the Northridge Mall and decided to grab a quick bite to eat. For some strange reason, she chose On the Border. She never wants to eat there, but apparently, she was in the mood for Mexican food.I decided to go with the build your own burrito and have it fried like a chimichanga. I must say that they made it really easy to build my meal. They brought out a checklist and I just checked off everything I wanted (shredded beef, black beans, and cheese). When it came out, I was so pleased. It was exactly as I wanted. It was tasty. Unfortunately, the Mrs's tacos were a little too rare and had to be sent back; however, when they did come back, the flavor was excellent!

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...
Little Keep on the Borderlands...Part 3
2007-10-08 17:45:00 I gripped the batons in my hands and stepped forward onto the bridge that the Frau had created and led the way towards the shattered doorway of the tower.Jim followed close behind, muttering half heard imprecations under his breath. Ravyn swung back onto the Frau?s humped back, burying one hand into the thick black fur to maintain her balance. With Ravyn secure on her back, the Frau shambled behind Jim, bringing up the rear of our small party.Passing through the portal, I felt a wave of magickal energy pass over me that was similar to passing from one world to another. Inside, the dark grey monotony of the Shadowland was replaced by the vibrant colors and rich textures of the ?normal? world. I was standing in the brightly lit foyer of what could have easily passed for a modern office building. The walls and floors of the place were of highly polished red and white marble tiles while the abundant golden fixtures gleamed in the bright yellow light that they put out.I had stopped in th...

Little Keep on the Borderlands...Part 2
2007-10-02 04:12:00 The Frau?s voice echoed in our minds. ?Once we get inside that thing, we can?t count on Rusty being able to get us back out of there with his power over the Shadow.?I glanced in her direction. ?Why do you say that??She returned the glance before swiveling her back towards the tower and grunting. ?I see El Diablito?s handiwork all over this thing. He has created this tower out of magick that hasn?t been used in centuries, if not millennia.?The Professor was curious now. ?You mean things like this tower have been created before? I don?t recall reading about any of these in my text books.?Ravyn chuckled and gave Jim?s cheek an affectionate pat. ?Of course not, silly! Things like this would only be found in your fairy tales and myths when you were growing up, although now you can find references in all sorts of modern fantasy. The Frau is right though, this more than just a traditional Mage?s Tower.?I looked the thing up and down again, trying to see what it was that made this place see...
Little Keep on the Borderlands...Part 1
2007-09-25 05:27:00 Visibility in this place is always limited, as Shadows flit about, drawn to light sources like moths in the mundane world. Here, our vision was further obscured by the thick, almost bubbling fog that rolled over us in successive waves from the direction where the troll had come from before pooling around our knees. It gathered around the now dissolving mass that was the troll.Undaunted by any unseen dangers that may have been lurking, I stepped into the mists towards where I had felt the location of El Diablito?s stronghold to be. I soon found myself on a rocky path between steeply rising walls of wet, black stone. The path would have been barely wide enough for that troll to walk through without brushing its shoulders against the sides.I heard others as they followed behind, Jim right behind me, with the Frau and Ravyn guarding our backs.The path continued at a slight up hill angle for a few hundred yards, twisting first right and then left. The fog was so thick and flowed so stron...

2007-06-02 05:51:00 Tensions are rising in and around Iraq. Mosul, Kirkuk and Baghdad, large cities in Iraq, are seeing daily ethnic cleansing.
