Fell back into the Reciprocation world again and am very much trying to live there right now. Everyone should go give this beauty a reread 🤧

[naamahdarling]

I remember this one serialized fantasy-setting erotica story from the mid-'00s to early '10s or so in only the vaguest terms and cannot even remember enough detail to describe it in a way unique enough to use in a search string, and I have no idea what the author's name was, and I'm genuinely exasperated because I never finished reading it, but it popped into my head randomly and now I can't stop thinking about it.

UGH.

It was a vaguely Western-flavored thing in a fantasy world, with two characters on the run through a very cool and dangerous desert landscape, fleeing a group of bad guys. One knew what they were doing in the wilderness and the other was pretty clueless, they didn't like each other, very slow burn. There was hurt/comfort I think? They were both sick or injured at some point. A huge weird storm. Some kind of !!!DESTINY!!! thing going on? Lots of peril. Magic powers?

It wasn't P L Nunn, I don't think, though if you have any of THEIR work I want to talk to you, but I think it was someone adjacent to them? In that same circle of LJ yaoi kink authors that I discovered about the same time. I THINK the same author had a multi-chapter snowed-in Wolverine/Sabretooth fic that was fairly brutal? But that might also have been P L Nunn, who is now a ghost.

The website had a yellow/cream/ivory background, I don't know if it was hosted on LJ?

I'm so frustrated. I can't remember anything more concrete but I would absolutely recognize a description of it if I saw one.

Could you tell us more about polynesian ecological knowledge?

Thanks for the ask. As usual, I’d always recommend trying to read the work of locals or Indigenous people of a given region, if they are willing to share their knowledge with non-Indigenous or non-local people. Rapa Nui was not the only Polynesian island group to have been conspicuously abandoned; it seems that soil degradation was somewhat common, especially on smaller and more ecologically sensitive islands. This might be a result of the Polynesian habit of exploring and “testing” islands for potential long-term settlement. I am not a good source of info on specific Polynesian tactics to maintain soil, but I might be able to recommend some sources that can answer how soil was replenished. (I’d also look into the Polynesian cultivation of taro, breadfruit, and pandanus). I’ll try to keep this post short, but like I mentioned in an earlier post, I spent several years periodically writing and updating two theses on Polynesian and Micronesian environmental knowledge and historical ecology. And, again, I did try to use mostly sources from Polynesian and Micronesian people or scholars close to and respectful of Oceanian cultures. I’m not really still all that knowledgeable or up-to-date on these subjects (it’s more like, I went through an “Oceania” phase) so take what I recommend with a grain of salt. That said, I carried this book in my overstuffed backpack, or kept it on my desk, just about everyday during that time. This is a good place to start exploring Polynesian use of plants for food crops, construction, and for navigation/voyaging.

So as I’ve blabbered on about before, I am so excited by Polynesian traditional ecological knowledge because it’s my impression that this kind of environmental knowledge, on islands in the Pacific, is uniquely impressive because (1) of the remoteness of islands, even from nearby islands occupied by related communities, meaning that cultivation and acquiring food requires extremely reliable maintenance of environmental knowledge, because in the middle of the ocean, you can’t exactly call for rescue or assistance easily; (2) the small size of many islands, the delicate sensitivity of such small islands, the essentially-closed ecological system, and easily depleted health of soil on islands means that unsustainable horitcultural or agricultural practices, or one bad seasonal harvest, can doom an entire island’s community to starvation; and (3) all of this sophisticated environmental knowledge was historically transmitted from generation to generation through oral tradition and storytelling, in the absence of written languages. Knowledge of the stars is of course an aspect of environmental knowledge. So this oral transmission of information in Polynesia is spectacular, especially with regards to astronomy and the ocean itself. For some island societies, intimately knowing the stars was a matter of life and death; the stars not only guided navigation, but could tell you that the annual migration of a certain fish was a few days away, or that a marine worm mating event would soon happen near the ocean surface a few kilometers to the east, meaning you could harvest them and eat (ask me more about the worm harvest). And it’s not like there was a written encyclopedia you could consult to identify stars; in some communities, like in Kiribati, even laypeople and teenagers (not just a priest class who had committed their entire life to navigation) can name over 770 different stars in the sky. (!)

Many individual Oceanian islands have a very clear archaeological record demonstrating the arrival of humans and food crops, the development of consistent horticultural practices, and, in some cases, the abandonment of settlement on the island. So a lot of archaeological work on historical ecology (especially the work of Patrick V. Kirch) can be enlightening in trying to understand which food crops were planted, how sustainable they were, and what the long-term ecological effects on soil were. However, the self-reported knowledge and oral histories of Polynesian/Oceanian people themselves are, probably unsurprisingly, the best sources for learning about plant use, horticulture, and related subjects.

I’m honestly not entirely sure how the Euro-American popular consciousness perceives Polynesia, aside from the typical colonialist fascination with “the exotic” and tropicality. Mayhaps some people would be surprised by just how big and expansive the South Pacific is? I know that Polynesia and Oceania are often perceived as “tropical,” but there are still many islands traditionally inhabited by Polynesian cultures that exist south of the Tropic of Capricorn, in some temperate and seasonally “chilly” climates, including Aotearoa (New Zealand). It seems that many Micronesian islands share many traditions with Polynesia, especially including horticulture, astronomy, and navigation. So just for reference, here’s a map of Oceania:

Here are a few singular sources that contain a lot of info on horticulture, environmental knowledge, and environmental change in Oceania:

– Historical Ecology in the Pacific Islands. Edited by Patrick V. Kirch and Terry L. Hunt. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1997.– Cultural Ecology in the Pacific Islands. Edited by Patrick V. Kirch and Terry L. Hunt. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1997.– pretty much all the work of Patrick V. Kirch, who focuses on pre-European historical ecology and environmental change of Polynesia, often using thorough archaeological research and self-reported local Indigenous histories– the work of Patrick D. Nunn is also widely respected; he focuses more on Polynesian/Micronesian myth and folklore, but a lot of this folklore has to do with ecology/environments– The People of the Sea: Environment, Identity, and History in Oceania. Paul D’Arcy. Honolulu: University of Hawaii Press, 2006.– The Growth and Collapse of Pacific Island Societies: Archaeological and Demographic Perspectives. Edited by Patrick V. Kirch and Jean-Louis Rallu. 2008. (A little too Western/Euro-American in its perspective, but there is a lot of discussion of historical ecology of the islands.)– Plants and the Migrations of Pacific Peoples: A Symposium (1963).– Migrations, Myth and Magic from the Gilbert Islands. Arthur Grimble. London: Routledge, 1972. (Mostly about navigation, astronomy, and folklore, but includes lots of firsthand accounts from talented traditional navigators as they discuss the importance of plants in voyages.)

–

These are just the sources exclusively dealing with plants, soil, and land use. Most of the sources I’m familiar with deal more with folklore and mythology, which are still pretty relevant to Polynesian environmental history, because much of the folklore has to do with understanding the environment. Most of these sources focus on understanding the ocean, sea life, and astronomy. Let me know if you’re interested in those.

And as long as we’re discussing Polynesian historical ecology, Polynesia also hosted some of the most unique and interesting relict species, strange and ancient endemic species left over from the Pleistocene that were able to hold on to existence on islands until human arrival. Like terrestrial and tree-climbing crocodiles, weird nocturnal birds, and frogs that somehow crossed the ocean despite their permeable amphibian skin. Just, Oceania is a really cool region.

Thanks again for the ask. :)

The 8-Minute Rule for Cbd Oil For Sore Throat

The vapor can be also warm and also more irritate your throat. Yes, similar to all health and wellness supplements around. CBD has lots of health benefits and an excellent safety and security account. It can't cause a deadly overdose and doesn't entail hazardous adverse effects with long-term usage however it still has some benign side impacts.

CBD can trigger the list below adverse effects: Dry mouth Lightheadedness Tiredness Cravings change Diarrhea (doses over 300 mg) CBD can also disrupt your liver's ability to metabolize drugs due to the fact that it's a potent prevention of the Cytochrome P450 system (CYP450). This system is liable for metabolizing 60% of pharmaceutical medicines. A similar inhibitory result is attained by drinking grapefruit juice, so if your medication has a grapefruit warning on it, you should not take it at the exact same time you take CBD https://wayofleaf.com/cbd/101/drinking-wine-while-taking-cbd-oil

As stated previously in the article, the ECS and its receptors occur throughout the whole body including your mouth. As well as your salivary glands. When you take CBD oil under the tongue, it communicates with the cannabinoid receptors in the salivary glands, hindering saliva production. That's why you obtain the cottonmouth effect every solitary time you take in a cannabis-derived item.

You can easily manage this side result by keeping yourself moistened before, throughout, and after your CBD usage. If you currently have a completely dry throat, CBD oil could trigger some light inflammation, however it shouldn't degrade your condition either. Although CBD oil isn't a miracle treatment for all your illness, taking it for aching throat is well backed by scientific research.

CBD can additionally decrease the pain experienced by clients with a sore throat. While no direct research study has actually yet explored its influence on this problem, present findings leave no question that it can be a suitable approach to combating infections and also the negative effects of a sore throat. If you're thinking about adding CBD oil to your medicine cabinet, see to it to seek advice from a holistic medical professional, especially if you take any kind of medications that might interact with cannabidiol and trigger undesirable reactions.

  Dudley Waugh

           The door of life closed gently as Dudley Smith Waugh crept forward on a heavenly journey Friday, October 19, 2018. He was born in North Wilkesboro, N.C., June 24, 1931 to Benjamin and Daisy Smith Waugh.

           Dudley, affectionately called "Dud" and "Uncle Dud" was raised and continued to live in the Fairplains Community. He attended the Wilkes County Schools. His family were faithful members of Beulah Presbyterian Church and it was there that Dudley accepted Christ at an early age. He was blessed with a strong and impressive tenor voice and he used his talent to the Glory of God in choirs and as a soloist at different churches. His most current membership was at Pleasant Hill Baptist Church where he served actively in the choir and as an usher.

           A staunch believer in hard work, which he exemplified throughout his life, Dudley worked several jobs and while on one specific job he met the love of his life, Lona Ferguson. They were married August 20, 1960 and to this union one son, Kirk Douglas Waugh was born. Dudley retired from North Wilkesboro Presbyterian Church after 44 years as the church sexton. Because of his dedicated service to caring for and maintaining God's House, Dudley received several citations and recognitions and today his legacy continues to live on at the church.

           Dudley's family was very near and dear to his heart. Although he had a quiet, humble manner and a humorous side, his spirit of love, devotion and caring did reveal itself. As one to stay very close to home, he did enjoy trips to Gatlinburg, TN. and to Durham. He loved the family gatherings and reunions. He especially enjoyed the 2000 Waugh-Watkins Family Reunion in the Maryland area where he was able to tour Washington, D.C. and the White House.

           He was preceded in death by: his parents, sisters, Hazel Waugh, Ella Ruth W. Brown, Martinez W. Ferguson, Violet W. Roberts, Charlene W. Bynum, Rebecca W. Ford-Daye, and brothers, Bruce Waugh, Baxter "Sonny" Waugh, Danny Waugh, Sr. and Kent Morgan Waugh.

With fond and loving memories to cherish, he leaves his devoted and loving wife of 58 years, Lona, his son, Kirk (Tammy), two grandsons, Brandon Whittington and Denzell Waugh, two sisters, Betsy Waugh Carver and Martha Waugh Barnes, sister-in-law, Rita Ferguson Daniels, brother-in-law, Rev. Charles Ferguson (Brenda), sister-in-law, Joan L. Waugh, nieces, nephews and a host of other relatives and friends.

           Funeral service will be held 1:00 p.m. Wednesday, October 24, 2018 at Pleasant Hill Baptist Church with Rev. Charles Ferguson, Rev. Matthew Farley and Rev. Steve Snipes officiating. Burial will follow in Mountlawn Memorial Park. The family will receive friends at Pleasant  Hill Baptist Church from 12:00 until 1:00 on Wednesday, prior to the service. Flowers will be accepted.

           Miller Funeral Service is in charge of the arrangements.

Kraami tasuta asjade poe suvetuur 2017: ida

24. juulist–6. augustini toimus Kraami “Tour de Estonia 2017 / Ida”: tasuta asjade poe suvetuur “Wall of Kindness”. Kahe nädala jooksul külastas mobiilne tasuta asjade pood Sompat, Ahtmet, Kohtla-Järvet, Sillamäed, Jõhvit, Kiviõli, Mustveed, Kasepääd, Jõgevat, Esnat, Väike-Maarjat ja Vao Majutuskeskust. Peatuskohtadeks olid enamasti kas kultuurikeskuste või kaubanduskeskuste esised platsid või kohalikud turud. Välja kuulutatud ja eelnevalt kokku lepitud plaanist pidasime kinni ja ühtegi plaanivälist muutust ei pidanud tegema (vt plaan allpool). Väga suur roll oli ilmal, kuna tasuta asjade pood oli külastatav vaid välitingimustel. Välja nägi see nii: tasuta asjade pood oli kokku pakitud 162 värvilisse banaanikasti 9 ratastel riiulil, kus igal kastil oli vastav nimi (n “seelikud”, “raamatud”, “villane” jne).

 E 24. Juuli – Sompa kultuurimaja ees, Humala tn 1, kell 16-19 T 25. juuli – Ahtme, Grossi poe ees, Maleva 23a, kell 15-18 K 26. juuli – Kohtla-Järve, Virula väljaku turg, Keskallee 3,kell 12-15 N 27. juuli – Sillamäe, Konsumi poe ees, Viru pst 2a, kell 15-18 R 28. juuli – Jõhvi turg, Narva mnt 14, kell 12-15 L 29. juuli – Kiviõli, Konsumi poe ees, Keskpuiestee 31, kell 15-18 E 31. juuli – Mustvee kultuurikeskuse ees, Tartu 12, kell 15-18 T 1. august – Kasepää, ambulARToorium, kell 15-18 N 3. august – Jõgeva kultuurikeskuse ees, Aia 6, kell 15-18 R 4. august – Esna mõisa hoovis, kell 15.30-17.30 L 5. august – Väike-Maarja, Grossi poe ees, Pikk 9, kell 16-18 P 6. august – Vao Majutuskeskuse ees, kell 12-14

 Jõudes uude kohta, ajasime kaubiku peatuspunkti lähedale, puldiga reguleeritava kaldtee abil toimetasime riiulid eraldi kaubikust välja, hiljem aga kaubikusse tagasi. Igal õhtul plaanisime ette järgmist päeva, sõites kaubikuga järgmise päeva sihtkohta ja parkides ta juba õhtul õigesse kohta. Ööbimiskohta liiklesime edasi väikese sõiduautoga. Sõiduautot vajasime ka 7-kuuse beebi transpodiks, kes tegi meiega kogu tuuri kaasa, olles ühtlasi meie tuuri team’i kõige solidaarsem ja demokraatlikum liige.

 Mida seekord ei jõudnud teha, oli kultuuriline lisaprogramm (n muusikalised esinemised, välikino näitamine tühjas kaubikus, lendlehtede jagamine). Kuigi natuke sai suupilli ja kitarri mängitud. Inimestega suhtlemist oli lihtsalt nii palju. Teisest küljest toimus nii väärtusliku lisainfo kogumine, kohalikega kontaktide loomine (n pidasime päevikut). Kuna tuuriga oli enamus ajast seotud vaid kaks inimest, siis oli kogu tegevus kokku suhteliselt intensiivne. Et kui peatuskoha ahi ajas õhtul suitsu sisse, siis õlu “Must nunn” ja juust “Harmony” kulus marjaks ära. Samas, valmistusime ka talveks: Sillamäel korjasime “kunstnike heinamaalt” kaasa põdrakanepit ja ajakirjanduses ilmunud artiklites asendasime sõna “humanitaarabi” mõttes sõnaga “reaalne abi”, humanitarka –> realka. Sest küsiti ka, “kas produkte on?”

 Suur abi oli venekeelse pressi väga suur ja positiivne kajastus: delfi.rus, Sputnik, ETV+, Raadio 4 ning mitmed netilehed, kes jagasid meie infot. Lisaks Põhjarannik, Virumaa Teataja, ajaleht Vooremaa. Jevgeni Sputnikust käis meiega kaasas kahel päeval. Venekeelne press oli väga hästi kaetud ja paljud kohalikud olid just sealt infot saanud, lisaks naabritelt, sõbralt, a la “keegi oli kellegi pojale helistanud, et tuleme”. Jagasime ka ise infot, aga väga palju aitas meid meie venekeelse pressiga Tatjana Lavrova. Kui eestikeelses pressis valitses vaikus, siis venekeelne press kajastas meie tuuri sisuliselt, jõuliselt ja dünaamiliselt. Kohtla-Järvel kasutasime inimeste mobiliseerimiseks lisaks ruuporiga tänavaaktsiooni, tiirutades alguses autoga mööda linna & Briisi tänavat ja rääkides ruuporisse eesti ja vene keeles. Hiljem jalutasime läbi kohalike mobiliseerimiseks meie peatuskoha lähimad rahvarohkemad kohad (pargid, bussijaam, turg, bussipeatused jne) ning jagasime nii inimestele infot. Peale Mustveed tundus, et meie varustus hakkab otsa saama, olgugi, et olime pakkinud kaasa ka lisakraami, mida kogu aeg jooksvalt juurde sorteerisime. Aga igaks juhuks tõime peale Kasepääd väikse sõiduautoga Tallinnast kraami lisaks. Kasepääl tõi Irinka meile veel pirukaid, kohvi, maasika toormoosi ja metsast korjatud mustikaid. Härjanurmel olime Helle staabis koos mesilaste, akordioni, koer Adeele, 2 voki, lammaste ja kasside Ippoliti, Vöödiku, Ronja ja Kikiga.

 Üsna kohe hakkasid inimesed huvi tundma, kas oleks võimalik asju ka tuua. Inimesed, kes ei soovinud midagi võtta, küll aga tuua. Toodi erinevatel põhjustel: ideoloogilistel (idee, et neid asju ei müüda, vaid jagatakse tasuta), ruumipuudusel või peale inimeste lahkumist, et saada ruumi uutele mõtetele. Alguses tõid inimesed asju meie peatuskohta, kuid hiljem hakkasime üles kirjutama ka aadresse ja läksime kokkulepitud kohta asjadele järele (n mikrorajoon Gagarini tänaval Sillamäel, kus kottidele lisaks pandi kaasa ka küpsiseid ja komme). Aga mõnes teises kohas võis paari kasti asemel olla ka kuni 10 kasti. Loomulikult ladusime need kõik kaubikusse. Võib öelda, et nii käitlesid kohalikud kohalike asju ja vahetasid omavahel. Tänu meie tasuta asjade poele vahetasid Ahtme elanikud omavahel Ahtme elanike asju ja meiega koos sõitsid need asjad edasi Kohtla-Järvele jne.

 Sai selgeks vajadus, et, igas linnas  peaks olema selline koht, kuhu saab asju tuua ja need, kellel neid vaja on, saaksid tasuta võtta. Sama ütlesid ka mitmed kohalikud, kellega kontakte lõime. Palju küsiti, millal tuleme tagasi. Alati vastasime, et plaanime tulla aga veel ei tea millal. Alguses plaanisime üle-Eestilist tuuri, aga see tundus liiga mahukas. Väga selgelt. Seega sai otsustatud seekord ida. Oluline, et sellist mobiilset autolavka stiilis tasuta asjade poodi on vaja ka maapiirkondades.

My first thesis was about Oceanian environmental knowledge. These are some of the better references I have come across. Two of the most authoritative researchers of early Polynesian knowledge are David Lewis (expert on wayfinding) and Patrick V. Kirch (expert on ethnobotany and land-use); they dominate most bibliographies on the subject. I also like the work of Patrick Nunn, who focuses more on Polynesian folklore.
