Remembering...

Do you want to remember? Start reading.

Here are a few places to get you started. Their words. Their history. Their stories. I`ll start in Canada where I live and where I'm from. If you're from elsewhere, you might want to look around here and at the World Veteran's Federation.

Just take a bit of time from your busy day. Read a bit about how we got here. What some people had to endure. How someone took the time to stand between two opposing forces and stay the peace. Here we are now.

The Royal Canadian Legion

Canadian History Of Peacekeeping

Canadian Association Of Veterans In United Nations Peacekeeping

Canadian Armed Forces General History Of Operations

This represents a portion of the whole that makes up the world and Canada's contribution to that whole. There are many other stories from many other people and places in the world. People who've made sacrifices for the rights and freedoms that we all enjoy today. We learn the most from people who've had to fight for something that we take for often take granted.

There are many stories the world over and much to be learned.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and anything on this blog,

Two New Friends, Two New Blogs...

One Fish, Two Fish.

Red Fish, Blue Fish.

Dr. Theodor Seuss Geisel

Here are my two new fish in their first appearance. Believe it or not, they posed for this picture and I'm serious in saying so. Fish are great and much more clever than most people would think.



And Now For The Adults

Two new blogs have gone up, one is Tales Of The Sanctum which is a random collection of stories from the world of A Lady's Prerogative that I am just starting out. The second is called The Butterfly Dragon, and will contain a random collection of stories pertaining to the world of that mythos. Both sites are adult and mature in content, meaning that I will be going to a more graphic novel style of writing and they are not meant for younger readers like the original Heroes Of Our Own.

I made this move to address some aspects of storytelling that I'd like to delve into but have kept clear of on this blog although A Lady's Prerogative: Wounded Aerth has turned into a whirlwind of controversy.

I suspect that I will continue building the world of A Lady's Prerogative and Heroes Of Our Own on those blogs. One of the stories contains a spoiler about the upcoming story elements in the climax of Wounded Aerth, which I've been holding off on writing while waiting for the local stalker storm to calms down. It is in the works with a bit of a rewrite of the most recent chapter as it is just a little too cliche, and the Power Lords and Culdar Rath are much more well prepared for this battle. They've been preparing for it for four thousand years. Thiara deserves a bit more or a dramatic confrontation with them and a showcase for why she's the Matron of the Night Wytch.

Anyhow, enjoy.

Another story finished.

Well I am proud to announce that Heroes Of Our Own is officially finished and available for your reading pleasure (or dismay depending upon your tastes).

I apologize for the lack of recent posts but I've been busy with a lot of other things and fending off the occasional stalker attack and around here it gets pretty bad for that not to mention having others steal what you create as you create it. They seem to use an eavesdropping technology that allows them to steal it as you write it and share it with a large audience of people who are members of a club or collective of some form illegally.

I've got some articles lined up that will highlight a bit more about some of the people that I admire so I will be posting them in the near future and giving light to many of the other creative people I've taken the time to put on this blog. Consider that a coming soon.

To all of those out there creating and fighting the good fight,

A Philosophy Lesson... Making Sure That Others Earn Your Love...

Brian Joseph Johns

Here's a bit of a philosophical post related to Love and Hate and how to avoid being tricked by those who reverse their definition.

How To Overcome Love Hate Definition Reversal

Some forms of Love/Hate ideology are abused by some people to trick you out of what you have to share with those you love and admire.

As I've said before, you can make someone hate you because that emotion is largely governed by hormones in your body, cortisol and adrenaline are some that affect that emotion. If you can trick someone's body into producing those hormones, and then harass them to no end, they are likely to react in a way that is harsh and hateful.

You cannot make somebody love you. There is no hormone that can do so and no Spanish fly that can make you fall in love with another person. Love is something linked directly to consciousness and is something that always must be earned and sometimes in the rare case, it is intuitively shared by two people immediately. That is why there are people who try to swap the two definition of the two emotions, because you can make someone hate, so if you reverse hate to mean love, then provoking someone to a hateful reaction is akin to making them love you and accordingly that is the means by which you share your good with others.

In this abusive form of love hate ideology, the only way that you share with others is by whom you love or have good feelings for so people literally have to earn it. They cannot trick you out of it, or can they? By swapping the definitions of love and hate a group of people are making it so that other people can milk you of your good deeds without having to meet your requirements for whom you share with and whatever else you have to share, by provoking you to a hateful reaction. So that is why I never, and I mean never reverse the definition of the two. Once you start down that road, its impossible to find your way back.

If you need to stop it or find your way back, here's a trick.

Polaris. The North Star.

In order for the love/hate definition reversal thing to work, it requires that there is always an opposite present to accommodate the term or idea to which you refer eg up leads to down, left to right, hot to cold, full to empty etc. In the paradigm, you might say you like someone, and to the cult it will mean that you dislike someone and that's how they'll distribute your good and bad accordingly. So someone that you love might end up with the bad things, and someone that you don't love and really dislike might end up with your good things. If definitions are reversed, how do you argue or reason your way back to the correct definition without using the words in the definition themselves? 

For the North Star, Polaris, there is not equal opposite on the south pole of the Earth that is exactly like Polaris because the southern sky is not a mirrored reflection of the northern sky. So the fact that the North Pole nearly exactly points at Polaris is the foundation from which to build from in defining the polarity correctly in such a way that cannot be reversed. Even referring to the North Pole as the South Pole won't work because there is no accompanying star similar to Polaris at the real south pole. From that point you can build a solid definition for up meaning the direction that points directly away from the center of the Earth and down being the direction that points directly to the center of the Earth. So its as simple as the fact that the North Pole points almost directly at Polaris. From there you can define polarity in terms of the definition of words correctly. 

So the only think that you need to do to reinforce the definition of love and hate is state and recognize that the North Pole, an imaginary line that runs through the Earth along its axis of rotation, points directly at the North Star or Polaris. So that direction is North. Therefore the definitions of words are lined up as they should be and how they are defined in the dictionary. 

What motivated me to formulate that? Love. I don't want the people I care about ending up with bad things sometimes dumped on me by others to hit the people that I admire and care about. I want to make sure that the people I care about and the cultural group of my love interest (she's Oriental I've mentioned) end up with what good I have to share, so they'll know I'm worthy of theirs. Likewise for the people that I admire and who've helped and inspired me in life. I enjoy dualism, but not when its abused by some to take from you what others have to earn the real way. I posted this short article on my gripes blog a day or so ago. My gripes blog is the place where I put most of the garbage that comes my way as a result of abusive stalking etc. so its a bit negative at times but every once in a while it has a nugget of gold. This was one such thing.

Updates To The Stories

Nothing new as of recent as I've been working around the clock on an upcoming software release. I'll be adding to the stories in the next couple of days along with a few articles and posts about some of the people out there whom I admire. Make sure that others earn what you have to share, and that definitely means earning your love.

A New Chapter, A Returning Series, Some New Ones...

Back again with another post and another chapter for Stories From The End. I finished it on the weekend that just passed.

In this chapter, a new element is introduced as society begins to break down, the Nomads, a group of city staff from a major centre set in to preserve what little order their is. Cale and Tweak are back along with Chang and their effort to uncover a hidden secret, in the chapter The Nomads.

Heroes Of Our Own and A Lady's Prerogative: Wounded Aerth will get fairly regular updates too though I've got to clean up the last chapter of A Lady's Prerogative: Wounded Aerth as I wanted Matron Thara's participation in the battle of the Sanctum to be tantamount to the outcome.

SHIELDed on Tonight 

In the television department, I am very much looking forward to the new season of Agents of SHIELD. I've been a fan of Marvel comics my whole life and its great to see SHIELD and HYDRA getting screen time in a major way. Great cast, characters and plot lines are definitely a strong point on the show not to mention the movie tie ins. I'd also love to see an episode or two with the involvement of Damage Inc., who are of course the Government funded company and organization that clean up the damage to buildings and property after a major super powered battle. 

They've made appearances in the print version of The West Coast Avengers, The Incredible Hulk (after a major show down between Thor and the Hulk himself), Fantastic Four (Benjamin Grimm aka The Thing of course said something that got the poor Hulk all riled up and well... you know the rest), and the X-Men (during the mutant wars) and probably cleaning up after much of the damage caused by the Sentinels and Trask Industries. They definitely work closely with SHIELD and what a great tie in it would be to have SHIELD and Damage Inc. show up in the aftermath of a battle with references to The Avengers or The Fantastic Four. Stark Industries and The Fantastic Four also fund them.

News Flash

In the DC department, they've finally returned with a new revamped series of the streak known as The Flash. From the looks of things the effects look great and there's definitely a lot of euphemisms for speeding present. I still remember original series from the early 1990s which was reminiscent of the stylized world DC and Tim Burton had created around the Batman movie of the time. Speaking of the the Dark Knight's stomping grounds, there's even the new show Gotham, which features Gotham city in its early days long before the Bat signal sat atop of the GCPD Headquarters. This show looks to be dripping with the same atmosphere that was present in both Burton's and Nolan/Goyer's interpretations of Gotham with its own signature.

Oh and by the way, my love interest is Oriental (I haven't been in a relationship for four years and four months) and I don't believe in hate. Hate is not love and love is not hate and I don't ever swap their definitions. She doesn't have a child either that I'm aware of but I get along fine with kids, after all I'm a big kid myself. Just in case anyone is trying to imposter themselves as me. Believe me it happens though I don't know why. I think that my stalkers want others to believe that I am someone else in a relationship with a member of their club. Its that same bizarre form of identity theft of others masquerading as your online identity. So if you see me on the streets, chances are I'll be alone (for now), wearing shorts in the summer (I'm a sucker for warm weather and using bicycle as my main mode of transportation).

I think that the stalkers try to set up a dualistic approach to the things that you do in terms of good (this blog) and bad (my gripes blog), trying to make you compete for your own good, versus someone else they select for such a game. In this sense the cult are thieves of your deeds and do so trying to dump their garbage upon you. So they'll impersonate you as best they can, then try to steal the repute for the good things you do by having a gang of their friends or fellow cult members attack you to put you to the "bad" side of things. The cult then treats the other person as being responsible for your good while you inherit their bad. I am not a member of any such cult by the way that would do such a thing.

I should say hi to my friends from FFP Ltd. (some knew it as Ferretina Film Productions and before that Animation Group Ltd). I hope you're all staying healthy and that life is treating you well and the same goes for you Andrew R. and Tom B. All's as well as it could be given circumstances and maybe soon in the near future it will be a little bit better.

A New Chapter For Two Books...

Brian Joseph Johns

There's two more new chapters since the last post here. There's one new one for A Lady's Prerogative: Wounded Aerth and another for Heroes Of Our Own.

Enjoy, as I've got to go and post a gripe to my gripes blog. It was another bad attack by the cult today right from the morning, and an attempt to push a lot of hate onto me. I'd never join any such cult for certain.

A Brave New Post without the Huxley...

The stories are back up although there's still a few missing (I'll try to get them up sooner or later as I'm able). I added a short paragraph to Stories From The End, which sets up the next few chapters and Elena's new role in the group while Stanton recovers.

It looks like I'll be going to school some time in the near future once I've dealt with my stalkers legally, so that's a positive thing though I'm not sure what I'm going to study. It'll be somewhere between updating current skills or pursuing some new ones.

I'm at an employment center downtown (at 650 Queen Street where the old Edwin House used to be). I used to have a summer job at the Tippet Richardson which was across the street, so its an odd feeling being here.

The stories will be updated within a month or two, and when I do, I will make a large scale addition.

While here the cult once again conducted their same harassment, some clients some of the workers. Its a shame not being able to go anywhere without people trying to steal via abusive love have or blood, and in mockery of Oriental culture. The cult know that is the culture of my love interest so they target me trying to trick me into breaking it down. That's what this cult call "milking a cow" based upon the two different colours of a cow, black and white. The cult try to steal a person's good by provoking them as a group to be on the "hate" side of things, so around here if you've done a lot in you're life, they gang up on you to "milk" you.

The cult actually swap your identity with that of someone else, whom they mistreat you for their deeds while praising them for yours. The cult force these sorts of connections between productive people and their members to milk them of their good. That means that if you get isolated by enough people in such a manner, you can literally be emptied out of everything that you have done that is good. Much like the Wytch hunters of A Lady's Prerogative: Wounded Aerth. So this is as much a warning to others as it is a plea.

The other links are up as well, so you can visit the sites I recommend created by people who've inspired myself and are doing their own thing.

Weekend Update

Happy FIFA weekend. Hopefully you are enjoying yours as I am enjoying mine just taking it easy.

I added a couple of chapters to Our Place (yesterday), digging into the story line a little deeper and revealing a bit more about the nature of it's plot. I hope you like it so far.

To add to the little soap opera that has been developing around here, it turns out that there is a cult locally that makes a competitive game out of people's lives in several ways.

The first way is a team based social game where members of various groups try to influence their target in some way or another and trick them into doing things they would not do, or into going against things they've stood for. This game is their "control" game as they literally measure and believe they can control a person and have made it into a competitive game of doing so. This game of course involves the need to keep track of their victims in every way, hence the eavesdropping technology and paranoia.

The second game is one where various groups compete for the credit of their victim's deeds as a means of paying for blood. Usually the groups involved make it a game of doing so before a person leaves an area, as the groups want to keep what good the person has done locally and give it to the person who is staying, meanwhile sending the local garbage with the person leaving. That`s kind of the gist of A Lady's Prerogative: Wounded Aerth. The groups doing so try to make their victim appear to be reactive so that others go along with this ruse. When you leave an area, they take the credit for your good actions while sending their garbage along with you. All of this if you lose their competition. The harassment is likely to get a person open because they want to take from you your ideas and opinions as frequently as they can and attribute them to other people in your vicinity. This is called getting a person open and is a big part of their ideology and their means of theft. Unfortunately because their eavesdropping gets your activities before you publish them, it is as if what you do on your computer is coming from a thousand other computers at the same time, so those looking for the real source of such activities might be misled as to their origins. They actually try to award that to a different person every time based upon seniority in their club or cult. In other words they take it from you before you have the chance to choose how you share it and spread it out amongst a network of people that operates independent of the internet. This independent network acts as a relay that feeds a realtime image of what is on your screen to others. Their machines appear just like yours as the relay appears to be near fullscreen and identical as it is a duplicate of the activity on your screen (much like remote desktop).

The last way involves making others pay for association or membership to a group by paying for their blood. That literally means either carrying the weight for their bad deeds, or giving up the credit for your good deeds to one of them. The group doing so were and are making such a thing more burdensome for others when it involved a mixed culture relationship that they did not agree with. What I mean in that regard is that if the group did not agree with the culture of your girlfriend, they would make her burden much more so than they would for others in order to break up the relationship and to encourage a more acceptable relationship. This is precisely what such a group does in terms of my love interest, first trying to figure out whom she might be and then making the burden bigger based upon her culture to reflect the kind of relationships that they will allow. Because she is Oriental the groups involved made that burden much worse than it normally would have been to both herself and myself.

These are the factors that have been affecting things around here and that is essentially the nature of the soap opera. First of all I would say for certain that nobody is controlling me, and definitely not into creating or writing any of the creations contained here or into doing anything else to contribute or share with the world in general. Most of the people where I'm from are like myself and just trying to share a bit in the interest of giving back and creating prosperity and the people doing this to myself and others are the exception rather than the rule. These groups operate under the idea that it is easier to steal the credit for something that you nothing to do with than it is to do it yourself. If you can fool the public into believing such an illusion, then you've essentially stolen what one person does right out of their hands.

For some people the idea of "control" is a fun role play game. Some adult couples play such games in their personal time relinquishing "control" to their partner consensually then reversing the roles. There is a whole medium of entertainment in the form of movies and games that contributes to that aspect of life and relationships and many couples and singles who partake of such things. That can be quite fun as both partners know it is role play and it is essentially consensual. When a person or a group of people try to do the same thing without consent to another person that is wrong. Using such a means to convince others that you are doing so to someone else without consent in order to steal from that person the credit for their deeds is absolutely immoral and inscrutable. It is unfortunate that there are people where I live that would try to do such a thing but as I've said, they are the exception rather than the rule. I would hope that most people that are into "control" are about role play and not trying to do so for real. There is plenty of entertainment to play as such. Why try to do so for real to someone when you have that as a means without hurting anyone. I am one such person who enjoys such role play and games, but would never try to do such a thing to someone else.

There's a whole generation of women who ended up on Prozac as a result of some people trying to do same thing to them. Why not love your partner and include her mind and creativity in your play.

Anyone who would try to take what you say or do by implying their control over you is the worst kind of thief that there is. A thief of someone else's identity and being.


Sorry that this might seem negative but this is truth and definitely what this cult are doing. I am definitely not a hater or even a negative person but I become filled with the negativity that the groups that do this attempt to fill you with.

The cult in this sense often refer to their activity as blue hell and around here that also includes illegal surveillance as well. The authorities seem to ignore it too. It is a cult that seems to attack you by ritualistic abuse in groups in place of someone else for their deeds. Substitution. And it is very aggressive and unfortunately even some of the authorities seem to ignore it despite the fact that I have no record. 

The cult doing this seem to think that I am dating someone that they refer to as "whore" just to let you in on their level of thinking. I am single and have never used the services of someone in such employ but I'd never use that word to refer to anyone regardless. I value companionship in such a way that I would hope that my partner would be committed to one partner as would I and that is what I seek.

It amazes me that people would use that word to refer to a lady and especially if that is her vocation. Words such as that are powerfully stigmatic cages for women, whether or not they are involved in such activity. The point being that when you refer to someone that way, it is stigmatic and abusive. If they were in such a vocation and wanted to change or escape their lifestyle, they could not as the stigma would cage them. It's amazing the difference between how men are praised for their sexual exploits (he's a stud) and women scorned (she's a whore).

The cult doing this look for words like what I just stated above to lay claim to them for themselves, often in order to get off the hook for mistreating women themselves or having referred to women in such a way as with the word "whore". 

The cult make it a game of swapping places. They say and sometimes do these horrible things like harassing a person in groups and mistreating them and then when their victim reacts and says something principled and meaningful, they swap places with their victim so that others think the victim the perpetrator and the perpetrators the victim. This is a means of theft the cult operate by. So they might start such a conflict and then when I react in defence of women, they attempt to trade places with me as the source of these words. That is the kind of identity theft this cult is into and about. Trading places in terms of their words and actions with the words and actions of someone else. By behaving in such a way they are creating the ante for this daily game they play and by the end of the day you have to avoid the garbage they've created and avoid having your words or deeds stolen from you. That is wrong! This stance does not change the fact that my love interest is Oriental despite the group seeming to want it to be someone else. I have to look at who accepted me when I was at my lowest to really know a person. Unfortunately the cult that I am surrounded by want it to be someone else and to paint that impression falsely to others despite the fact that I am currently single and have been for four years and two months.

That is actually how they appear to "build" people. Two at a time making it a game for the two to compete for the credit of their own truth (if it is better) or avoid the truth of the other persons (if it is worse). The biggest obstacles to this are my immediate neighbours who literally go all day and night with hate and negativity in attempt to provoke reaction. They want you to be on the "hate" side of things so they can claim that "hate means love", something that I would never go along with unless you are referring to a theatrical performance. 

Kind of like the movie The Talented Mr. Ripley though I am not rich and I am definitely not archetypal of the lead role despite the fact that Matt Damon is a great actor and performer. In my case it is like a group of people occasionally share my identity amongst themselves while keeping me laden with that of someone else for whom I receive a sort of ritualistic punishment in their place.

Possibly that is how this cult operate and how they reward success in this game of switching truths, by giving the "winner" short term companionship (I wouldn't put it past them judging by how they treat women) and likely why they would keep you single and nearly forcibly unemployed while they do this to you. Its harder to steal your truth if you have others in your life and easier to steal your portfolio too. Welcome to my portfolio. This cult have certainly made a mess of it in the last year. By mistreating me and often they would make my demeanor appear a bit mean and short tempered by doing so long enough. Nobody would ever believe that I could have written A Lady's Prerogative or Heroes Of Our Own.

That is a possibility of the motivation for the illegal surveillance. That I am being kept under surveillance in place of someone else. I find it absolutely unbelievable that this could happen in Toronto, Canada.

A New Place

I am currently in the process of looking for a new residence in Toronto, Ontario via Craigslist on a very modest budget. That may change with the future possibility of publishing and sales arrangements and by the good graces of my readers and potential customers (another means by which this cult might try to take you apart to others in order to reduce your potential customer base). If you see me coming, note that I don't smoke and am very tame, and am pretty clean with my place despite the treatment I've receiving here. I don't cause trouble and am pretty quiet when not instigated by groups of stalkers. Most of my work is quiet as well (not too much noise results from writing software, blogging or writing fiction and seeking a publishing deal). You might hear the occasional key tapping. I don't have parties and am rarely loud if at all and don't use any substances whatsoever though I occasionally drink. It sometimes helps keep the trolls quiet when you are writing.

Hate is not love and love is not hate (so this is not blue love).

Updates

Hello again. Here's my daily spamming of the G+ channel with updates to my stories and a round of harassment complaints. Everything else is well.

There were Updates to Our Place and Heroes Of Our Own. 

There was once again a lot of attacks during the process of my writing by the local harassment club and once again on the basis of the culture of my love interest being Oriental. All of these stories are not really culture centric in one direction and I try to explore all aspects of life and culture either directly or through allegory.

There have been a lot of threats like "honeymoon chopped!" and other such statements from the harassers. I am not on a honeymoon because of course the harassers have made sure to take any social and career life from me. There is however no really good reason for doing so as I am not abusive but I suppose that by swapping my identity in such a way and soiling my repute in such a way it is difficult to get ahead. That doesn't stop others from trying. I guess stealing the words and deeds from someone whose life you've helped to crush is OK. The dangers of substitution now the question is how to get an investigator to look at the possibility of illegal eavesdropping being conducted in the area.

It seems like they take some kind of benefit that you might be entitled to for their own credit while keeping it secret from the people who offer this benefit that the stories or their effort was stolen by a group of people with this illegal eavesdropping technology and credited to someone else who was then given a gift of some form to pay for the benefit it caused. Heroes Of Our Own has caused a lot of stir in industries related to the beauty industry, but none of that has made its way once to me here.

Others have however received benefit from it in some ways which leads me to believe that someone is stealing the story with the use of this eavesdropping technology. I think that the groups doing this take what you do and use it to fuel their lives or the fact that you write to fuel the career of someone else, treating you like you don't exist if you don't have a "sponsor". Its like a bunch of people in this neighbourhood ganged up on me to steal from me the credit for my words and deeds without giving anything back in return while using them to fuel someone else's life. That's one way the illegal eavesdropping technology could be used and I think that they've been using it for a while on me.

They seem to try to provoke you into making such a judgement then making you seem paranoid or off when you do. Like they lure you into conflict then use the conflict to steal what you do from you and credit it to someone else as part of the rules to their club. I am a member of no such club that would do such a thing so hard to say how I deal with it. Maybe I should quit writing? Many of the group try to credit what you do to others that might have known you like they are swapping your identity with someone.

I've stated this before on other posts, but that idea really comes from the Gnostic ideas about marriage. To Gnostic ideology, the idea of gender is not bound to any one sex. That means that someone male can be a nurturer as much a lady and a lady can take on the role of provider and all of the roles in marriage and relationships are interchangeable. In Gnosticism the idea of same sex marriage has been there from the beginning because the idea of gender is not bound to our physical sex. That's what two become one really means. You can literally understand your partner better if you accept that you are partly feminine as you are masculine. Even our chromosomes reflect the same idea. Anyway, in some brands of this ideology it is common for one partner to carry all of the bad while relinquishing all of the good to the other partner based upon their individual needs for the day. The harassers are people that try to force this idea upon people who have no relationship between them. So they randomly select someone else to swap your identity with along with your deeds, making it almost game like in approach seeing who you end up with by the end of the day. 

The use of eavesdropping technology is one way the groups know who has accomplished something and what there is to take in such a way. The only difference is that they must make sure that credit does not go where it is due. So the clubs that conduct this eavesdropping are literally stealing what they monitor from one person's computer and applying it to someone else's life to fuel their career almost like a couple might do in marriage (including the ideas of Gnostic marriage). The problem is that they are forming up such associations randomly while another part of the community keeps the illusion and literally steals the victim's efforts and credits them elsewhere. So the victim literally sinks while they conduct such effort and someone else literally climbs. Often the victim's identity is literally swapped so the victim ends up with the deeds of the person they've been swapped with. If you were married then I don't see the big deal. If you're anything but in a loving relationship or married then I see a big problem as that is the worst form of theft there is. Taking from someone else the credit for their deeds before they even have a chance to benefit from them. I am a member of no such club that would allow such a thing so there is no excuse for it. I support gay and transgender marriage but I am heterosexual and my love interest is a lady. 

I see the Gnostic explanation of things in this sense as being a pretty well rounded and accepting of others. I don't see using any means to steal the words or deeds from another person or by claims of controlling or manipulating them as being sound at all either. 

Maybe by knowing about this it might protect you. Enjoy the new chapters.

Update

Added a couple new chapters to the story Our Place to go with the tremendous amount of harassment from last night and this morning. I attempted to get as much done as I could before they caught on that I was writing but by about noon they had really gotten out of hand. Another group trying to credit anything that I write to some other people while swapping my identity with someone else. That person seems to be getting the rewards for my efforts

All of this is surrounding the culture of my love interest  (she's Oriental and she's a lady and that's a big no-no to a heritage group in the area). Around here it is literally a large scale game for them in the neighbourhood. This just gets worse as time goes on. They seem to be stealing writing and other things as I do them and crediting them to someone else remotely while keeping it a secret to others that seem to be a part of the same eavesdropping network. Probably trying to make me appear mentally ill which I am not. 

Does anyone know what hell hate is? That is what the members of this club claim they are often doing when doing that. Giving me hell hate. I guess they didn't like my support for gay rights or mixed culture relationships. 

How do community groups or others gain the right to conduct illegal eavesdropping on computers? They can literally use abuse for the purposes of censorship is they want me to stop writing and they are very aggressive in doing so. How does this happen in Canada in 2014? 

Just so you know, it seems to work like key logging as those doing it seem only to react when you associate your name with what you write. That is it broadcasts keystrokes as they occur so anyone could be typing it. Seeing as you might not type anything that would indicate who you are or who the owner of your creative property is if you are a writer, they could literally take anything. The neighbours often comment on it as it is written so there is definitely something very illegal going on. If you are writing creative fiction, the people responsible for the eavesdropping can literally just take it as it is stolen before it is published. I am not saying that my work is that good but that's not the point. Somebody is interested as there are many people involved.

Hate is not love by the way.

I hope you`re having more fun than I am.

Quick Update

Howdy. I am sorry for the nature of the last post, but not what I said and definitely stand by it 100%. I'll talk more about that in a bit below.

The Avengers: One Of The Greatest Comic Book Adaptions!

I got a chance to watch Marvel Entertainment's The Avengers once again last night and enjoyed it thoroughly again. It is in a tight spot with X-Men 2: X-Men United (they shouldn't have killed off Lady Deathstrike and Kelly Hu though), Spiderman 2, Iron Man (especially for the character work between Gwyneth Paltrow and Robert Downey Jr.) and The Dark Knight and Richard Donner's Superman as my favourite superhero movies of all time.

I am completely looking forward to the upcoming sequel as I am a comic book fan from the early days. Look for an upcoming Avengers related post. I am one of the few people in the city that still hasn't seen The Amazing Spiderman 2 but am looking forward to it. I won't compare it to Spiderman 2 as one of my favourite superhero movies of all time. Two completely different interpretations of the same character and each a different experience.

Here are other superhero or action titles I highly recommend that did not receive the same attention as some of the titles listed above but are incredible entries and must see movies:

Elektra - Stars Jennifer Garner in another comic book adaption spawned from Marvel's Daredevil film franchise, Elektra follows the origins of the assassin from her early days following her training and the aquisition of her unique abilities. The art direction in this film is incredible with the cinematographers definitely tipping their hats to the next movie listed here. Directed by Rob Bowman.

Hero - An incredible tale and epic work of art that follows the tale of a legendary swordsman and his pursuit of his quarry. Two lovers whose betrayal and forgiveness of each other only fuels their journey together. This film is a work of art visually as it is in dance, martial arts and palette. One of Quentin Tarantino's favourites. An incredible cast starring Maggie Cheung, Ziyi Zhang, Jet Li, Donnie Yen and Tony Chiu Wai Leung. Directed by Yimou Zhang.

Resident Evil Apocalypse - The sequel to the first movie in the video game franchise follows the story of Alice, the genetically engineered super weapon of the future in the form of a beautiful woman played by none other than Milla Jovovich. The story continues as Alice must help a rag tag team of special forces operatives rescue the daughter of a scientist and escape from Raccoon City which has become infected with the deadly T-Virus. Sienna Guillory plays Jill Valentine, another strong female lead along side Milla's that is complimented by that of Oded Fehr who plays Carlos Olivera. Directed by Alexander Witt.

The Fantastic Four - The Fantastic Four follows the lives of a wealthy scientist and his "family" after they are affected by cosmic rays that result in imbuing them with amazing powers. The characters are well founded and the atmosphere is like that of a family albeit a little bit dysfunctional like every interesting family. The sequel offers one of the rarities and catalyst of conflict in the superhero genre: a bachelor party and a wedding. Look for Chris Evans who is one of the few actors to actually play more than one popular superhero role in his life. Directed by Tim Story.

Cellular - Speaking of Chris Evans, here is a movie great movie that puts him in the role of the unwilling hero who receives a distress call from a beautiful stranger pleading for his help. A great movie with a great cast and though not a superhero movie, there are definitely heroes of super proportions. Excellent direction, music and editing too. Directed by David R. Ellis.

Unbreakable - Bruce Willis stars in this role much like his prior roles in Sixth Sense and Twelve Monkeys and definitely a must watch movie like the others listed here. Much like the Sixth Sense the dialogue in this film is as thoughtful and provocative as the story itself. After surviving a train crash with no other survivors, the main character finds himself being led down a path of discovery by a mysterious mentor who is played by Samuel L. Jackson. Directed by M. Night Shyamalan.

Army Of Darkness - Perhaps the definitive cult film of the century, Army Of Darkness has spawned fans of the genre and made its director and cast known world wide. A man who was transported to the past while trying to rid the world of a treacherously evil book: The Necronomicon must finish his quest for the book and find his way home again. A comedy flick much more than a horror flick, it stars Bruce Campbell as the anti-hero Ash whose one liners and misdirection is laugh worthy for every watching. Directed by Sam Raimi.

Software Releases

I had a little bit of time to work on some upcoming releases, both of which are software titles and are utilities for Windows (possible port to other operating systems dependent upon popularity), one of which has already created a lot of attention called Shhhh for a working title (which may stay for the first release).

Screenplays?

I'm also investigating the possibility of adapting at least one or more of my stories to Screen Writer's format in order to facilitate the possibility of entering into the world of script writing with which I have working experience especially in the theatre of linking storyboard to dialogue elements. If and when that does happen, look for another blog that will contain the screenplay adaptation of the selected stories and possible future writing solely in that format. For those of you interested as well I've been checking out Scriptologist.com.

As far as the stories getting an update, they are coming soon. Finding an opening between local social beatings is getting difficult but one that I will never give up on nonetheless.

About Eavesdropping And Harassment Related To The Prior Post

One of the things that becomes an important issue when you do anything that involves creative property on a computer is keeping it protected long enough to be presented in unaffected format. That means if you are in the process of creating something, nobody else interferes with it by reading over your shoulder and bumping you at the right times to distract you or even by trying to influence what you write.

Locally there seems to be a misuse of technology that allows others to "shoulder surf" another computer remotely and because those who do so locally are close enough to have a direct influence by verbal or sometimes physical interference, this creates a problem for someone who is involved in the creative process whether that be as a hobbyist or a professional. That also opens the door to others possibly taking what you do as you do it to fuel their own career or lives or just outright stealing it for their credit altogether.

It makes protecting my creative output difficult and as well I often have to fight for the credit of my own output by such effort. In addition it makes it difficult corresponding with others as any such correspondence I make is known about in advance and often any ensuing efforts to further life or career goals are sabotaged as a result. In revealing this I'm often painted as being paranoid. As I've said most of this pertains to the culture of my love interest being Oriental which seems to be a big no-no for some people.

Anyway, thank you for your time.

New Chapter: Heroes Of Our Own

Good evening to all 

I hope that our neighbours south of the border are looking forward to their festivities and the fourth of July celebration. I have many friends that live there and who have all proven an inspiration to me at various points in my life and whom are still a part of my day to day life whether with me or not. 


Despite our differences as neighbours on opposite sides of the border, I think that we can safely say that we've got your back as often as we can say we get your backside ;-)

Happy Fourth Of July!

I proudly present this addition for the women of Heroes Of Our Own. 

This is dedicated to all of you out there in the fashion arts industry and to those working on life saving and changing research and volunteer efforts to make life better. As well dedicated to Comic Books creators of the world and to Milla, Mir, Tamela, KH and DH, iJ, FC, SoKo (search my site) and Mom. Each of you heal us in different ways for which I am eternally grateful for. When you combine them amazing things can happen.

Its a very busy set of chapters and there will be some serious turns.

Torman confronts his fears. Monique confronts a friend. Valkyra confronts Hugh. Alicia proves that experience can be far more valuable than power alone. Weltherwithsp lends it's voice to their search. Heylyn unites them, for they are Heroes Of Our Own.

Enjoy!

PS. I'm going to prepare for the next attack upon me by my stalkers as they usually time them with any post.

I'm off to enjoy a game of Sims 3 and possibly a bit of Superhero MMO. See you online.

Two More Chapters And More To Come

Congratulations

Congratulations to the one hundred couples who "engaged" in record setting same sex marriages with many people in attendance. I think that it's great that Toronto, a modern city with its own quirks and growing pains can host such an event, sending a message of acceptance to other cities of the world. I hope that the message of acceptance extends as much internally as it does for show. Hopefully people will learn to accept without engaging in the mechanics of polarization and the resulting ripples thereto by.

Thank You

Two days ago I found a nice 24" LG Monitor in the garbage, so of course I took it home and much to my surprise with a little tweaking and some driver maintenance I was able to get it working perfectly via HDMI. It makes a huge difference having a dual monitor workspace so to whomever happened to leave that device in the garbage, my humble thanks.

Hate Trouncing

Yesterday and last night specifically, I was "hate trounced" by some people local to my living space (a common side effect of the mechanics of polarization). That just means that a group of people verbally attack you in attempt to build up a negative mind set or even anger in you. I think that such groups believe that when you exhibit such a reaction, that your good literally leaves you and goes to someone else, while you are laden with their bad. This is a way that some people believe they can steal your deeds from you, often by pitting you in situations that would contradict what you propose are your principles in word trying to give the appearances of contradiction in deed or even to wipe out a person's light to become darkness. I don't think there are many that are subject to as much around the clock as frequently as myself by their neighbours in attempt to get a reaction in the like.

Unfortunately because of wide spread illegal monitoring, many people have learned to make a benefit by the theft of other people's words and deeds by keeping their victims under illegal surveillance and "seeing" their output before it gets published or even when it is discussed freely in the privacy of their own home. So what is yours and your creations are now subject to theft by such a group unfortunately that needs to be investigated.

The same sort of activity present in A Lady's Prerogative: Wounded Aerth that has victimized many of the characters in the past where Mila, Shaela, Nelony, Yirfir and Jasmer now find themselves trapped.

In that story, the Haven is to the south and there is no correlation or allegory between the geography of the historical or modern world and its current or past political boundaries. The Haven could as easily be Canada as the United States, or Northern Europe and Southern Europe, Or Northern Middle East and the Southern Middle East or North East Asia and South East Asia or Australia. The Haven is literally where you make it, is the point that I'm trying to say. Its not as much a place as it is a way of being. As such the Haven needs to be defended against those who break that way of being down into a structure that could prevail anywhere if we do not stand vigil against it.

Canada, The Common Wealth, Ghosts And Blood Paid

I'm going to jump head first into a topic that is one that I've thought about often and that is the idea based upon the saying "blood paid" which has special significance in many different occasions and in many different ways and how it relates to Canada, The Commonwealth and anywhere that such ideas are protected. I'm going to clarify that definition in order to clear up some grave injustices that have occurred as a result of its misinterpretation and misuse over the years.

The idea of blood paid is often associated with Royalty and therefore has fallen to a variety of misinterpretations over the years, often in support of ideas that really aren't the case at all nor related to what it really means, especially in relation to the definition that relates to the association of a country, its land and its people.

The idea comes from a means of uniting people by their principles rather than by other boundaries that might divide us. A set of principles and ideals upheld by one group of people who've often had to endure in the face of adversity and manipulation as stance in support of their principles and often in spite of who and what it pit them against. Its use in reference to Royalty means literally, that you've earned the right of association by standing for the same ideals, even when challenged upon those ideals as those practised by those of Royalty. 

It could mean the same for any people and just means that the right of association has been earned as such that the person earning so has stood and withstood the tribulations that have challenged someone on the grounds of principle and practice thereof. You've earned the right to bear my support should you need it. I'll vouch for you because you've stood your ground on the principles we mutually share. Those statements could bear the same definition just as likely though blood paid has much deeper ramifications meaning having paid for brotherhood or sisterhood. On the basis of what drives a person beyond their own means and at their own peril should they choose to stay their ground on principle.

The deception arises on the alternate definition, which is often exalted as pertaining to superior heritage and the right thereto conduct oneself in tasks only allowed by others of privileged blood. Meaning that should you choose a vocation and it has been deemed that you do not possess the right blood to bare the right to do so, blood paid has a much different connotation in these circumstances. It is the right of one group of people to charge the price of the credit of ones deeds or carrying the burden of such a sponsor in exchange for their association and sponsorship which gives the right to perform that vocation. That means that for those not possessed of such blood or stock, they bare no right in the eyes of such people to engage in activity that is beyond their station in life. Your children's fate is sealed by their stock and should they prove the ability to exceed that station, it might be taken for the credit by those who follow this second definition as payment for the right to do so.

Of the two definitions, it is this second one that has often found itself the device of the means of dismantling Commonwealths when the people are sold the one idea when in fact the definition is really the first or when a regime is in power that supports the second means which inherently becomes oppressive as even if you bare the ability to do something but you do not bare the stock, you are limited to seek association from someone else who does bare that right in your place. While you toil in effort of that which drives you, they benefit both socially and enigmatically in your place. It would be as if you worked for weeks at a job to great accomplishment, and the hours you'd accumulated went to someone else's time card and social credit or worse, you worked at something for weeks, while baring the burden of someone else's bad deeds in action against your very own principles. 

Consequently people who've lost this allegorical right to take part in society as such are often referred to as Ghosts, meaning they are not alive as they do not possess such association as someone who does have that right and "stock" to do so. Such people who are "Ghosts" are often the victims of much theft of their deeds both socially and enigmatically as they are not seen as being alive and part of this "game". A grave injustice that victimizes many while fuelling the lives of those who'd just take for their own on the basis of entitlement. Theft of word and deed is still the same as such and is no more right despite what name you give it.

Canada And Blood Paid

In Canada, blood paid has a few meanings. It means firstly the veterans of the battles which have been fought prior to and after its birth in support of our principles as a nation and people living within the same borders, by people who gave their lives fighting in defence of those principles having paid the ultimate price. Their blood paid for the freedoms that we live by and enjoy now.

It also means having stood up for and defended the principles that define what Canada is about in terms of its stance on its laws, the rights of its own citizens and global citizens alike and the land that we share as a country.

It also means that as a member of the Commonwealth, having stood up for the same principles and in the service of others, those principles that are defended and in the service of others by the Crown.

It also means having stood up for by word or deed and or both, the defining principles of Canada and its people together even under the opposition and peril of those who'd undermine those principles and the cost thus far paid.

It does not mean that you need to pay for someone else's blood by giving up your word and deed to someone else to bare the right to do anything unless within the confines of the law, you are required to seek license or mentor ship there to do so.

What you have to share is shared by principle and love and not by entitlement. That's what makes it special when you do choose to share. That's also what makes it special when you put yourself at risk to defend what Canada is about.

These words may be easy to type but they were not easily come by, and not by someone who told me what to say, but by my living it and at my own peril and not stolen by me from anyone else for I seek no payment as such from others as much as I do not pay others for the same.

Enjoy your Canada Day Weekend and Happy Canada Day,

Updates

Hello once again.

I hope that the week is going well for you. Fortunately some of my effort is paying off on the software side of things and here's the first post in relation to an actual release.

If you are a Windows computer user looking for a snazzy font browsing application to check out my latest offering: Font Spy. It's geared towards anyone that uses publishing and graphics software and works with fonts often during that process and wants a simple way to search and prototype fonts for their design work. You can find a downloadable installer thanks to Google Drive.

I'll be working on A Lady's Prerogative and Heroes Of Our Own tomorrow possibly during the day and the evening so look for the updates by tomorrow night.

World Pride 2014

Greetings once again.

In Toronto they've started the festivities of the World Pride 2014 festival. There's plenty of entertainment and activities to be found. Just check the web site for more information. In case you haven't guessed I am a supporter. All the best to those taking part in the festivities as its a great way to welcome in the summer.

Speaking of summer, we just had the summer solstice which of course is the point at which we have the most hours of sun and the longest day of the year. Read about it on the link above. It is connected with many traditions both modern an ancient and was considered the most important and peak of the growing season by those that cultivate food. 

It also forms the basis and setting for Shakespeare's A Mid Summer Night's Dream, which was perhaps one of Shakespeare's riskiest comedic plays that did not explore the world of debauchery and politics but in fact explored the world of sexuality, feminism and gender identity. Read the full play here care of MIT.

Speaking of MIT, did you ever want a university education but didn't have the time or resources? Well its not too late because you can take many courses online for free thanks to edX. They offer a wide variety of courses that are given by many of the world's top universities in a variety of different topics from computer science to zoology. So there's no better time than the present to engage yourself in the wonders of yearning and learning.

Speaking of yearning and learning, there have been a few new additions A Lady's Prerogative: Wounded Aerth since my last post. I spent most of the weekend getting battered once again by my abusive stalkers so that didn't leave much space for writing. I just usually take a few days to recover and recharge with the words of Chumbawamba...

I did manage to get in a few chapters in Heroes Of Our Own since the last post. You might want to peruse them once you're finished reading A Mid Summer Night's Dream.

Whatever corner of the world you're from

PS. Not a half an hour after this post, the same people with some others started the same thing all over again.
