coding coding and coding. I like the logic needed to structure workflows and defining data relations, but then its too much coding! hehe.
Debra Charron snorts and her eyes once again glitter, this time in very frank contempt. Her voice is clear and is intended to reach the onlookers as she states, "Tres, are you really sure you want to pass along your duty to another? It may get you out of a bullet here tonight, but in the long run how will it play for those who have to follow you? Soldiers like to respect their commander after all.......and a commander who hides behind others when presented with physical danger is not one who'll inspire much in the way of respect - and your men deserve better" Deb looks at the person acompanying Tres, "You're here of your own free will?"
Pyros Zenovka nods at the woman"My duty is to sever the UAC and the company i follow my orders to the letter." he taps the gun at his side."So my orders are to kill you what else is there to do."
Deets Carroll sighs and steps sideways, out of Deb's line of fire. It gives her a better line on Tres, which isn't much of a coincidence.
Tres Asbrink just titls his head as he looks at Deb"There are reasons why i have brought commisinars to the city." he just smiles"To carry out my will. Cold ruthless type who do as the uac wills it." he looks to Pyros." Which Pyros is one of them."
Esha Rajal arrived rather fashionably late for the evening's festivities. At least she had a good excuse, having run ragged across Apoc and the southwestern side of Midian. She stood far enough back from the gathered crowd that she could have a good view of the area in general. She was just there in case anything went wrong, as per orders, and she'd follow them. She shifted her wait from side to side as she waited patiently, her eyes roaming over the children in front of her, and off to the little bit of action she could see down on the beach below.
Debra Charron smiles at Tres, "Really? Or have you brought them because you doubt your ability to command the respect of the troops who have served you to this point? For acts just such as this one........" Deb looks at the uniformed man, "I am Debra Charron, and I appreciate your dedication to your duty. I don't think i've had the privilige of your name soldier?""
Tres Asbrink just lets out a small snort"There only job is to do what the company says nothing more.. If not then liquadation is in order i would say." he just lets out a small laugh looking at pyros to see what his reply would be.
Jaina Lefevre watches and listens. She's so proud of her Mom down there. And she so desperately wants to slice that fucker with his own scalpel again.
Pyros Zenovka just looks at the woman for a moment and titls his head"I can care less what a dog of war has to say.... I have my duty i do what i have to do. You do not the curse of mercs like yourself." his hand moves to the large luger at his leg taping it for a moment.
Jaina Lefevre holds Rai's hand tight, watching. She's chewing the crap out of her lip too.
Kimani Silvercloud listens to the conversation below and shakes her head and wispers to the group of kids "He's probaly scared, makin up excuses why he cant fight"
Jaina Lefevre: "Probably because he's a pansy. Rai and I took him. He has to get someone else to fight 'cause he'd pee his pants if he had'ta do it his ownself."
Nellie Meads: "Pixis, come over with us."
Deets Carroll shakes her head. "This is crap. She levels her gun at Tres. Your flunky drops his guns, or I shoot you now."
Kimani Silvercloud looks over and smiles "hey sister, come on over" she pats the ground next to her
Belldandy Ghost looks over to Kimani, at first she wasnt planning on moving, but since Kimi had motioned to a spot she couldnt help but to go over and sit by her, to watch the two fight like gladiators in a colleseum or arena
Debra Charron chuckles, "Commisar, last time I checked - you worked for Union Aerospace Corporation..........not some government. That means I'm not the only mercenary on this beach, i'm just the only *Professional* mercenary here." Deb grins wolfishly at Tres, "If you insist on sacrificing another to save yourself, the consequences be upon your head. No matter who walks away from this, in the eyes of those who serve you - the folks down in the ranks - I win." Deb fixes her gaze on Pyros, "Well Commisar - if you're ready to defend his right to make war on children - find myself suitably attired." Deb cuts her gaze to Deets, "Deets - let him have his fun. if this fellow is Tres' substitute, then i'll trade shots with him. If tres himself or anyone else attempts to fire at me, drop Tres."
Rai Pawpad smiles. "Hey there, Knight."
Belldandy Ghost nods "Good Morning, Your Majesty."
Jaina Lefevre glances over at Pix but is really kinda focused on hoping her Mom doesn't die.
Deets Carroll scowls, "Understood." Begrudgingly. Her shotgun aim never wavers from Tres' back.
Kimani Silvercloud clasps her hands together nevously fidgeting with them she tries to smile at the group reassuringly but it just comes out as a grimace
Pyros Zenovka just smiles as the woman"Just so you know i'm the top in with my group for this kind of work miss." he just smiles as he steps forward>"No worrys there will be no one to bother you... Childeren from this city are just like the adults things that need to be beaten."
Tres Asbrink just steps back from the fight and lets his man do his job.
Jaina Lefevre: "Yeah! But HE was the one that got his ass beat!" She points to Tres. "BY TWO KIDS! PANSY!"
Rai Pawpad growls in his chest, and murmurs, "yeah? bring it assbag."
Deets Carroll glares and keeps Tres in her sights, stepping back slightly to maintain her distance.
Simon Netizen just...watches. Seeing, hearing...watching quietly as he converses in whispers with Esha.

Protesting against the use of drones and the use of torture, these are members of Code Pink, photographed on January 12, 2013, at a demonstration outside one of the entrances to the headquarters of the CIA, in McLean, Virginia. On the left is Lachelle Roddy, and on the right is Nancy Mancias, the coordinator for Code Pink's War Criminals and Ground the Drones campaigns. The event also involved Episcopal Peace Fellowship DC, Northern Virginians for Peace & Justice, Pax Christi and World Can’t Wait, and activists from the group Witness Against Torture, protesting about the ongoing existence of Guantánamo, the day after the 11th anniversary of the prison's opening.

In the mid 1600s the renegade warriors of Japan decided a code of honour must be written.
It is of pure rigidity and almost funny these days.
Just a couple of their rules......
* No dogs to be owned by any Samurai ( Death Penalty)
They must not urinate over the SECOND floor balcony of any abode........( no idea why but it had me laughing out loud)
* All villagers must kneel and bow their heads so it touches the ground when the Samurai pass through their home.
Those who do not are executed for dishonour.
The picture is made up of beauty and bravery. Also there are two pieces within of decapitated heads.
The heads removed in battle were taken by the WOMEN and bled until face was wholly white, washed and cleaned, pony tail made into their standard to maintain honour, stuck onto a spike through a plinth of wood and then a tag attached to their ear with words of their honour in battle and death at the hands of Samurai Warriors.
The man in the middle is the beater of time for all schools of Samurai and their battle formations in the schools.
The man top left has a flag behind him as all warriors had. it was their colours and was attached to a pole of wood, slotted into their belt behind them.
The battlefields were awash with coloured flags as battle began. Not just one standard as battles have more recently.
Perhaps these days we are lacking in honour and a code for Earth is badly needed. Mother Earth has her standards but she is losing her battle against the marauding humans !!!

Signs promoting the Burren Code in English, French, Italian, Polish, Spanish and German. Apparently visitors to the Burren tend to break pieces of the limestone pavement to make little cairns. I've no idea why. In the background you can see two of the Aran Islands in the distance.

Vodafone has announced plans to provide coding training to 1,000 teenage girls across 26 countries in what is the world’s furthest-reaching in-person global coding programme of its kind. The commitment was announced in advance of @WomenScienceDay. Vodafone is partnering with @CodeFirstGirls to address widening gender gap in STEM.
For many years, women and girls have played an important role in science and technology. Without the work of technology pioneers like Hedy Lamarr and Barbara Liskov, we would not have Wi-Fi and email as we know it. But despite this, women and girls are still grossly under-represented in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) education and careers. Only 35% of girls enter further education in STEM subjects, and many have little encouragement to equip themselves with the skills to thrive in these industries.
Vodafone wants to help change this. In a partnership with social enterprise Code First: Girls, Vodafone’s #CodeLikeAGirl programme will provide five-day, coding workshops for girls, ages 14-18, across its geographical footprint in Europe, India, the Middle East, South Africa and Australasia. In 2017, 500 girls across Vodafone’s 26 markets were taught to code as part of the Vodafone and Code First: Girls partnership. This year, 1,000 teenage girls will benefit from the programme.
