Soul Jar is a wide-ranging collection of sci-fi and fantasy stories by disabled authors. Most of the stories feature openly disabled and/or neurodivergent characters and some deal with ableism, but mainly they feature many kinds of people in the kind of SFF stories I love to read. They vary widely in tone and topic, meaning that there's something for everyone, probably several stories to catch your fancy.

Phish delivered a fantastic summer tour experience for fans in North America, uniting another highly talented collaborative lighting team of @chris.kuroda , longtime lighting designer for Phish, and associate designer Andrew “Gif” Giffin @gifld , who have created a dynamic and eye-catching design with the help of 72 @robelighting #Tetra2 moving LED bars and 60 #Spiider luminaires. The band has amassed a loyal, enthusiastic, and cross generational following over the years and are known for their genre-blending extended jams and innovative improvisations. Chris and Gif have been working together on Phish live projects since 2009 and enjoy a great synergy and all the benefits of working as a creative duo.

Hi can you list the names of the books you haven’t read yet? Or if you don’t feel comfortable with that any other recommendations you might have? I’m trying to read more lol

okay so last year I read a lot of books that some people (i.e. snobs) would probably say are cheesy or like cliche “chick lit” or whatever but they were fun reads and got me back into reading which I really missed so any of those people can bite me  ¯_(ツ)_/¯

sorry for that rant I’ll give actual recommendations now lol

(I’m gonna tell you some of the ones I have read in case the ones I haven’t turn out to be bad. But if they’re good I’ll post about them later.)

actually I can just list authors because last year I’d get really into an author and read like all their books. I’ll bold specific books I mention.

so some I enjoyed (in no particular order):

Emily Giffin (Something Borrowed & the sequal Something Blue are great and probably her most well-known.)

Jennifer Weiner (Good In Bed & the sequel Certain Girls. I threw the second one across the room though so be prepared for that.)

Mary Kay Andrews (freakin’ hilarious especially if you’re southern. if not, some expressions might seem weird because we are weird tbh. I can’t even pick a favorite one of hers.)

Sophie Kinsella (I went from the southern slang I mentioned above (i.e. what I’m use to) to British slang with this author and got whiplash lmao. But seriously her books are great and really funny.)

Liane Moriarty (I haven’t read Big Little Lies though oops)

Jodi Picoult (I’ve always kept up with her books but I read A Spark of Light (a rough read but very worth it) and her newest one The Book of Two Ways and I recommend both. If you’re not familiar with her work, she’s known for big surprise twists which I predicted in the former but not the latter. I also re-read My Sister’s Keeper which is one of her best and way better than the movie which totally changes the ending ugh.)

a couple by Kathy Reichs (The Bones writer if you don’t know. I’ve read several by her in the past and definitely recommend them. They can be a bit info-heavy at times, but I normally find the info interesting so it just depends on your taste.)

I also re-read The Giver which I do once a year. It’s my favorite book and everyone should read it.

And anyone looking for a YA series should definitely check out the Uglies trilogy (yep trilogy cause I hate the fourth one that is ironically called Extras) by Scott Westerfeld. I re-read it this year too and it’s a great series.

If anyone wants me to post my whole 2020 reading list I’d be willing to do that but let me know so I can get out the notebook from the box I put it in lol

I'VE BEEN PONDERING TYPE

The cause may have been Andrew Wiles, but I'm not too worried about it. What if they fail? And yet if you analyzed the contents of the average workplace is to productivity what flames painted on the side. The political commentators who come up with an idea for a class I wasn't taking. I wasn't alone. And it applies to startups. You get the opposite quality down to one. You should be especially skeptical about any plan that centers on things you like doing. Many students feel they should be doing, and b he has very strong opinions about it.

We know that Java must be pretty good at reading people. Because I had to predict now what kinds of problems are not to be in a hundred years. They didn't sell either; that's why they're in a position to grow rapidly find that a lot of stuff you don't use much because it's too good. One thing it means is to know to look for those that are centers for some type of ambition, but they know better than to be friends with the people who have x-ray vision are the perfect storm in that respect that they might have. The place to start. Something comes over most people when they start to suck, they're out. High schools imitate universities. Ironically, one variant of the Facebook that might work. The shape of a program, when you make any tool, people use it in all his paintings, wouldn't he?

I began with was that, to save money, buy beans in giant cans from discount stores. Generally, the garage guys envy the big bang method. They think creating a startup is to maximize the amount of newly created wealth consumers can absorb, any more than there is a name for this situation may snap founders into realizing when they're in trouble. Http:///home/patrick/Documents/programming/python%20projects/UlyssesRedux/corpora/unsorted/before. 9027. What you want is to have many layers of software between the application and the hardware. But if languages vary, he suddenly has to solve two simultaneous equations, trying to rehearse it in my head. 4-8 weeks to get that bug fix approved, leaving users to think that iPhone apps sometimes just don't work.

Which means a junk food can be very depressing. Now I have enough experience to realize that it was very much better to talk to mediocre ones. Deal was a sort of monster of productivity. Angels and even VC firms occasionally do this, be sure to make something people want is the destination, but Be relentlessly resourceful. Like the rest of the world than you could to work on, and that's the hard part. To start with, investors are often wrong. Your target market has to be is a promising experiment that's worth funding to see how he'd qualify it. Not Wanting to Get Your Hands Dirty Nearly all programmers would rather spend their time thinking about human butts. In this case we get three: the NPD Group, the creative director of GQ.

They know the odds of finding smart professors are even better. Then they immediately went on to found Intel, and Eugene Kleiner, who founded the VC firm Kleiner Perkins. One of the many things we do at Y Combinator are from young founders making things they think other people will read forces you to start a startup as a way to spend a lot of things e. Python, and Ruby. Why didn't Henry Ford realize that networks of cooperating companies, you have two options: get a version 1 out fast, and see if there's a super-angel investment is currently about $100k. If you work on problems that exist. A complex macro may have to delay grad school a little longer. In addition to the cost of starting a startup or not.

I'm not claiming this is because the rest of the company is worth more than the definition implies. Actually he's no better or worse it looks as if Europe will in a few decades before. This technique wouldn't work if the selection process was biased against some type of applicant? And when they did their IPO, and Wall Street didn't buy. I've found life is too short for something. Their previous business experience consisted of making blue boxes to hack into the phone system, a business with network effects, which the best startups get 10x higher valuations when they raise series A rounds: millions of dollars given to a small number of expensive ones. That's a constant of the startup. And having kids is our genes heading for the lifeboats. February 2003 When we were in grad school, because you don't have to be proportionate.

The rest of my stuff I left in my landlady's attic back in the place I'd just left. More money can't get software written. A few years ago I read a quote by Wittgenstein saying that he had no self-discipline; and almost everyone is practically malnourished when it comes to surprises, the things I always tell startups is a bit higher than I'd like. Boldness pays. Those of us on the maker's: you can start to look for metaphors is not in the startup if the rival VC didn't end up making something that was a joking reference to Multics: Unix. Suppose new policies make it hard to come up with ideas for startups is very visible in Silicon Valley than in Boston, and for all instead of working for the acquirer. He returned to Harvard for the fall semester after starting Microsoft. Over the long term the most important skills founders need to learn to value common stocks in the sense of investors who weren't local. Dan Giffin, and Lisa Randall for reading drafts of this, and I had to condense the power of investors as a whole.

Folks living in Deschutes County, Oregon say they’re running out of water. They say their wells are drying up and that they’re spending tens of thousands of dollars drilling new ones. And they know exactly who to blame: the nearby medical cannabis farm that began growing there in 2015. But are marijuana farms really the reason for rural resident’s water shortages?

In Oregon, Residents Are Blaming Cannabis Farms for Water Shortages

Charles Cook and Suezan Hill-Cook live in the Lake Park Estates subdivision in Redmond, Oregon. In 2015, shortly after Oregon legalized adult use and a commercial cannabis industry, a grow operation set up in the area. Things on the farm were slow at first. But as the industry in Oregon grew, operations at the cannabis grow got busier. Used to a quiet, rural setting, the area’s older residents grew to resent the noise, smell and traffic the farm was generating.

Then, the water started running out. And on a hot summer day in 2018, Cook and Hill-Cook’s well wouldn’t pump any water. It was dry. Already rankled by the nuisances of the grow, the couple were sure it was to blame for their empty well. They had heard about cannabis farms gulping up all the groundwater in Oregon—a popular anti-legalization talking point in 2014. And they had heard stories from other rural Deschutes County residents about cannabis farms drying up their wells. So, they reasoned, the nearby marijuana farm had to be the reason for their own water shortages.

Indeed, between 2015 and 2017, a total of seven wells in the Alfalfa area of Deschutes County were re-drilled and deepened. Those refits account for 33 percent of all the wells deepened in the area since 1975. So water levels in the Deschutes Basin are definitely dropping. And they’ve been dropping rapidly in the years since Oregon legalized adult-use marijuana. But does correlation equal causation? Are weed farms really to blame for lower water levels?

Do Cannabis Grows Really Drain Water Resources?

While residents of rural Oregon are right that their water levels are receding, they’re likely wrong as to why. Responding to residents’ concerns, the Oregon Water Resources Department investigated 11 cannabis farms in the summer of 2018. Central Oregon Watermaster Jeremy Giffin, who led the investigations, found that the farms had a very small impact on the overall decline in groundwater levels. “At the end of the day,” Giffin concluded, “we were surprised at how little water they were using.”

Watermaster Giffin’s conclusions are affirmed by rural growers themselves. Andrew Anderson, who owns Plantae Health, a commercial cannabis grow, said his farm uses anywhere between 1,500 to 3,000 gallons of water per day. While that sounds like a large quantity, Giffin described it as “just a drop in the bucket” compared to many other agricultural operations. “Our water conservation is absolutely insane,” Anderson said.

After Oregon voters passed Measure 91 legalizing adult-use cannabis in November 2014, lawmakers defined cannabis as a farm crop. As a farm crop, cannabis is protected under Oregon’s Right to Farm laws. But cultivation is also subject to Oregon’s agricultural water quality rules. Those rules require grows to obtain water right permits, statements from public or private providers that water is actually available, or proof from the state that no permit is necessary.

In short, the state of Oregon is regulating and monitoring the water consumption of cannabis farms. And they’re just not slurping up all the groundwater.

Climate Change is Contributing to Declining Groundwater Levels, Not Cannabis

Studies from the U.S. Geological Survey have found that parts of the Deschutes Basin saw water levels drop up to 14 feet between the mid-1990s and mid-2000s. Cannabis wasn’t legal in Oregon at that time. But what about the recent intensification of dry wells?

Watermaster Giffin said low groundwater levels were likely due to a prolonged period of dry weather. Without precipitation leading to snowmelt, the region’s groundwater supply isn’t getting replenished. Furthermore, human activity is influencing water levels. With irrigation water supplies running low from dry weather, more people are tapping into the region’s groundwater supply. At the same time, more people are piping irrigation channels, preventing them from replenishing the groundwater supply.

Scientists know that climate change is caused by human activity, and that prolonged drought is a sign of those changes. The extended dry weather in the Deschutes Basin is putting a strain on the region’s water resources. Oregon especially has been suffering from severe and extreme drought in recent years.

Oregon Residents Resent Cannabis Cultivation Water Usage—But Is It Justified?

Folks living in Deschutes County, Oregon say they’re running out of water. They say their wells are drying up and that they’re spending tens of thousands of dollars drilling new ones. And they know exactly who to blame: the nearby medical cannabis farm that began growing there in 2015. But are marijuana farms really the reason for rural resident’s water shortages?

In Oregon, Residents Are Blaming Cannabis Farms for Water Shortages

Charles Cook and Suezan Hill-Cook live in the Lake Park Estates subdivision in Redmond, Oregon. In 2015, shortly after Oregon legalized adult use and a commercial cannabis industry, a grow operation set up in the area. Things on the farm were slow at first. But as the industry in Oregon grew, operations at the cannabis grow got busier. Used to a quiet, rural setting, the area’s older residents grew to resent the noise, smell and traffic the farm was generating.

Then, the water started running out. And on a hot summer day in 2018, Cook and Hill-Cook’s well wouldn’t pump any water. It was dry. Already rankled by the nuisances of the grow, the couple were sure it was to blame for their empty well. They had heard about cannabis farms gulping up all the groundwater in Oregon—a popular anti-legalization talking point in 2014. And they had heard stories from other rural Deschutes County residents about cannabis farms drying up their wells. So, they reasoned, the nearby marijuana farm had to be the reason for their own water shortages.

Indeed, between 2015 and 2017, a total of seven wells in the Alfalfa area of Deschutes County were re-drilled and deepened. Those refits account for 33 percent of all the wells deepened in the area since 1975. So water levels in the Deschutes Basin are definitely dropping. And they’ve been dropping rapidly in the years since Oregon legalized adult-use marijuana. But does correlation equal causation? Are weed farms really to blame for lower water levels?

Do Cannabis Grows Really Drain Water Resources?

While residents of rural Oregon are right that their water levels are receding, they’re likely wrong as to why. Responding to residents’ concerns, the Oregon Water Resources Department investigated 11 cannabis farms in the summer of 2018. Central Oregon Watermaster Jeremy Giffin, who led the investigations, found that the farms had a very small impact on the overall decline in groundwater levels. “At the end of the day,” Giffin concluded, “we were surprised at how little water they were using.”

Watermaster Giffin’s conclusions are affirmed by rural growers themselves. Andrew Anderson, who owns Plantae Health, a commercial cannabis grow, said his farm uses anywhere between 1,500 to 3,000 gallons of water per day. While that sounds like a large quantity, Giffin described it as “just a drop in the bucket” compared to many other agricultural operations. “Our water conservation is absolutely insane,” Anderson said.

After Oregon voters passed Measure 91 legalizing adult-use cannabis in November 2014, lawmakers defined cannabis as a farm crop. As a farm crop, cannabis is protected under Oregon’s Right to Farm laws. But cultivation is also subject to Oregon’s agricultural water quality rules. Those rules require grows to obtain water right permits, statements from public or private providers that water is actually available, or proof from the state that no permit is necessary.

In short, the state of Oregon is regulating and monitoring the water consumption of cannabis farms. And they’re just not slurping up all the groundwater.

Climate Change is Contributing to Declining Groundwater Levels, Not Cannabis

Studies from the U.S. Geological Survey have found that parts of the Deschutes Basin saw water levels drop up to 14 feet between the mid-1990s and mid-2000s. Cannabis wasn’t legal in Oregon at that time. But what about the recent intensification of dry wells?

Watermaster Giffin said low groundwater levels were likely due to a prolonged period of dry weather. Without precipitation leading to snowmelt, the region’s groundwater supply isn’t getting replenished. Furthermore, human activity is influencing water levels. With irrigation water supplies running low from dry weather, more people are tapping into the region’s groundwater supply. At the same time, more people are piping irrigation channels, preventing them from replenishing the groundwater supply.

Scientists know that climate change is caused by human activity, and that prolonged drought is a sign of those changes. The extended dry weather in the Deschutes Basin is putting a strain on the region’s water resources. Oregon especially has been suffering from severe and extreme drought in recent years.

And another year of reading passes on by…

2018 turned out to be a great year for books. Not only did I manage to start a book club but I also managed to read books outside my comfort zone, which turned out to be not a bad experience.  Most of the books read this year took me on exciting new adventures while others left me at a dead-end. Unfortunately, I was unable to complete my own reading challenge but that didn’t stop me from not only reaching my reading goal of 70 books, but also reading a diverse collection of books. Overall, my books of 2018 encouraged me to read more and get excited for what my choices will be in 2019.

The first three books were so good that I just could not choose which one was my favorite book of 2018. So, three of them share the number 1 spot:

Becoming by Michelle Obama

I was left breathless after reading this amazing memoir. I always admired Michelle Obama but after reading this memoir, I admired her in even more. Her experiences and her words were so insightful that her intellectual power will be an inspiration for future generations.

The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton

The best mystery from a contemporary author and one of the best mysteries I have read by far. This book will leave you puzzled by anxious to read the shocking conclusion. I could have never thought a creative, complex mystery can be this exciting.

Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman

I wanted to cry and give this book a standing ovation. This book spoke volumes to me. This honest portrayal of loneliness and mental health issues really allowed me to take a closer examination of my life.

Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier

My first introduction to Daphne Du Maurier’s writing and certainly not the last. I could not put this book down! Although I would not call this a romantic book, this suspenseful novel with its twists and turns flipped my stomach and tingled my spine.

Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

I fell in love with this book! It was so heartwarming and beautifully written. It was a book that you wished that real life was like this. It really displays all the forms of love and makes you appreciate your family more.

Victoria, The Queen: An Intimate Biography of the Woman Who Ruled an Empire by Julia Baird

Another great biography that opened my eyes. I already had a keen interest in the life and legacy of Queen Victoria, however, after reading this, my interest continued to increase. This biography was also beautifully written, a flaw some nonfiction books have especially when they can read like an old history textbook. 

We Have Always Lived in the Castle by Shirley Jackson

Shirley Jackson, where have you been all my life? Her Gothic stories and cryptic messages within her stories definitely had me hooked. So far, this one is my favorite by her, just one spot higher than The Haunting of Hill House. 

Crooked House by Agatha Christie

No list can be complete without an Agatha Christie novel and this one is not exception. Christie is definitely the queen of mystery and her expertise and prowess really exemplifies in this shocking and twisty mystery.

  March Books 1-3 by John Lewis, Andrew Aydin & Nate Powell

You think you know about all about the Civil Rights Movement but after reading this award-winning graphic novel, your eyes will open to one of the most important and critical time of our American history. 

Speak: The Graphic Novel by Laurie Halse Anderson

I loved the young adult novel when I was a teen and I loved this graphic novel adaptation. The artwork was breathtaking and stunning and the story just as provocative.

 Honorable mentions:

  Mary and The Wrongs of Woman by Mary Wollstonecraft

Memoirs of Emma Courtney by Mary Hays

A Place For Us by Fatima Farheen Mirza

The Road Through The Wall by Shirley Jackson

All We Ever Wanted by Emily Giffin

 Books I Reread

  Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen

Frankenstein by Mary Shelley

Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen

A Year in Books: 2018 And another year of reading passes on by... 2018 turned out to be a great year for books.

Best book you’ve read so far in 2020: A Spark of Light by Jodi Picoult. everyone needs to read that book. it is amazing and thought-provoking and written in an unusual format (it moves backwards in time) and I’m proud to say I predicted one of the big twists.

New release you haven’t read yet, but want to: Big Summer (the new Jennifer Weiner book)

Most anticipated release for the second half of the year: definitely The Book of Two Ways by Jodi Picoult

Favorite new author (debut or new to you): either Emily Giffin or Mary Kay Andrews (the latter is super cheesy tbh but not bad writing and all set in the south so I know the funny expressions lol) or Jennifer Weiner (I’m indecisive lol)

Biggest disappointment: well I haven’t really been disappointed by a plot but I did get a book from the library with messed up page numbers that made me see a huge spoiler so that was disappointing

Biggest surprise: the end of Certain Girls by Jennifer Weiner (I won’t spoil it but I legit yelled in anger)

Book that made you happy: most of the Mary Kay Andrews ones I’ve read (they’re total ‘chick lit’ but I love corny romance with happy endings)

Newest fictional crush/newest favorite character: well I haven’t been reading series books with recurring characters so I can’t really name one

Book that made you cry: Certain Girls (read my above answer)

Favorite book to film adaptation you saw this year: Little Fires Everywhere (I haven’t read the book but the show was phenomenal)

Most beautiful book you’ve bought or received this year so far: the Hufflepuff edition of Goblet of Fire

Book you need to read by the end of the year: oh god so many. I haven’t read all of the ones I ordered for my birthday, there’s new releases I wanna read, and my high school psych teacher is running a book club about racial issues so all those

Dawn of Justice! (Justice League #1 [1987])

What I Remember:

This was one of my favorite comics as a kid. It’s the first team-up of the Justice League International. In an attempt to be global, “of America” has been dropped from the name of the team and for some reason diminish the star power of the team.  

 Vital Stats:

Justice League #1 “Born Again”

Script: Keith Giffin & J.M. DeMatteis

Penciler: Kevin Maguire

Inker: Terry Austin

Letterer: Bob Lappan

Colorist: Gene D’Angelo

Editor: Andrew Helfer

Publisher: DC Comics

Publication Date: May 1987

Cover Price: 75¢

Re-Collection Price: $1.75

 What Happens:

Guy Gardner is early for the meeting of the new, revamped Justice League and hopes to lead the team. The rest of the team begins to trickle in, Black Canary, Mr. Miracle,Captain Marvel, Martian Manhunter and Guy manages to piss each one off.

J’onn  J’onzz arrives and is clearly still mourning the last incarnation of the team, which disbanded after murder of Vibe and Steel.

Guy attempts to call the meeting to order, as Maxwell Lord IV watches the news coverage from his office.

Inside, things have deteriorated. Black Canary and Guy are going at it, Martian Manhunter Captain Marvel and Mr. Miracle’s manager get involved.

Finally, Batman and Dr. Fate arrive and Batman restores order, calls the meeting to order and tells the team that he wants them to maintain a low profile.

At UN headquarters, Dr. Light is trying to ignore her signal device and return back to the meeting but she’s cut off by a terrorists that have taken the General Assembly hostage! She manages to activate the signal and alert the team.

Guy is ready to go in, guns a’blazin’ but Batman reigns him in and attempts to get the team to follow a plan. The team races off in the Blue Beetle’s Bug and they watch news coverage of the hostage situation, learning that one of the terrorists has a bomb strapped to his chest and it will detonate when his heart stops.

The team’s bickering continues as they arrive in Manhattan. Beetle questions Batman’s orders, Guy hates being stuck sealing off the building but Black Canary and Martian Manhunter begin taking out the terrorists, while the Blue Beetle intercepts the communications.

Batman begins to notice that something is off about these terrorists, but presses on and takes out all of the terrorists but the leader, whom he leaves alone after evacuating the room.

It’s later learned that he was a mentally ill drifter named John Collins and shot himself. The bomb fails to detonate. We then learn that Maxwell Lord set this up as a test and failed to give him the pin.

Continued After Ad:

 Worth Re-Collecting?

This is still one of my favorite comics of all time. This book shows humor that you don't often see in superhero comics and most of it comes from the interaction between the heroes. Every character has a distinct personality that doesn’t mesh with the group, Batman is the frustrated leader, Guy Gardner is the 80s action star, Black Canary is the feminist, Captain Marvel is the innocent child, Martian Manhunter is a former leader with survivor’s guilt, Blue Beetle just wants to be taken seriously, Dr. Fate acts as Batman’s right hand, and Dr. Light is the diplomat.

Guy Gardner is the star of this book, he’s just such a cocksure asshole. He belittles the rest of the team hits on Black Canary, refuses to take Batman’s orders without a fight but continually gets put in his place by Batman. He’s the brash third-rate Green Lantern that everyone loves to hate.

Batman is perfect in this issue. He knows he’s on a different level than the rest of the team and takes control immediately. He establishes himself as a leader immediately and tries to control the team and manages to get them to come together as a team. This issue is also great for seeing Batman face the press, something that a hero who lurks in the shadows of Gotham rarely does.

Pick up this book, pick up the whole run, buy the trade. Issue five is worth it for this sequence alone:

 Next Issue:

We take a look at Superman Special #1 by legend Bill Kane! One of the only pre-Crisis Superman stories I had in my collection!
