I've been wanting a Sheaffer Imperial since Pelikan Hub because I had the chance to try one and I really liked it. I usually search for stuff on my wish list just in case, and this week I found this amazing Sheaffer Imperial in Cadmium Yellow. I had no idea you could get it in this color, and the only information I have is that it's from the 90's. Great eBay find and spectacular color. #FountainPen #Sheaffer #Imperial

Cadmium Yellow fountain pen. The fountain pen is a Sheaffer Imperial and has an inlay nib that makes it look super sleek.

The midway surprise Prasat Rorng Ramong

An early morning at Prasat Rorng Ramong. This small temple remain alone off the main road between Angkor Wat and the south moat of Angkor Thom. Enclosed by a narrow road and mostly hidden by trees. It may look insignificant and small, but it is larger than the entry track suggest. And well worth a closer look.

The temple has many names. Prasat Rorng Ramong, Rong Lmong, ប្រាសាទរោងរមុង and Rung Lmong. It is a Hindu temple not far from the entrance to the hill temple Phnom Bakheng.

It is built in the same style as Phnom Bakheng temple, with one tower foundation and walls in good condition, remains of a second tower but no traces of what was probably a third tower.

A small laterite causeway leads eastwards from the main remains. There are reported traces of a small moat around the temple, but it is dried out and most traces of it has disappeared.

A glimpse of the early, old capital
Rorng Ramong was built during the reign of Yasovarman I, the great king that moved the Khmer imperial capital from Hariharalaya. The god king/emperor founded the Yaśodharapura capital city near today’s Nokor Thom/Angkor Thom. This third Khmer imperial capital was centred on Bakheng Hill, in the early 900s CE.

This temple is significant because it gives a good idea of how these early temples was planned and build into the city structure.

Photo shows the remains of a Khmer temple tower. It has a platform with stairs lead up from a stone laden causeway. On top of the platform there is a gate in a ground floor wall. It leads into a room with an altar and small guard statues. The three other walls are partly fallen down. The top of the temple tower is lost. The temple is made of red laterite stone.
It was once probably three towers in this 1100 year old temple, but to the north of this there are some remains of a platform and gate lintel. The third tower is probably long gone. Around the platform there are remains of a Yoni basin, and some stone art. The open area is covered by dirt and fallen leaves, and is flanked by green forest. In the background the main road between Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom is visible. Cambodia is as safe, comfortable and kind as ever. Angkor and Siem Reap warmly welcomes visitors as the home of several cultural world heritage sites and good food.

Explains a LOT.

You see: Stormtroopers had an Imperial upbringing and training; their uniforms were made in the outer rims of the Empire - regions that used Metric (rebel scum); their sights, electronics, ranging, etc were calibrated to Metric. Hence the bad shots they were.

Smoking good Khmer BBQ street food

When you want to buy street food in Asia, you will not lack choices.

Like chicken, quail, sausage, pork, pineapple from this happy chef.

Trick is to follow a local chef and her fav street food joint. Or – the joint with the longest queue.

And your nose, of course.

You can feed yourself well and have left overs for lunch the next day for 5 USD. Or take away for when to visit Khmer friends for drinks and talks, a meal for a large group or family is around 10 USD.

An evening with comfort Khmer seafood BBQ

Who says things need to be complicated when produce has high quality?

Tiger shrimps, squids and veggies on the BBQ, freshly steamed local rice and one of M’me Khmer chefs own, home made dipping sauces.

And a beer.

That is great eating and comfort food and drinks. A great Saturday in Siem Reap, Cambodia.


For seafood lovers
Cambodia is a great country for seafood lovers. Or, I think the technical term is aquatic based protein.

In a typical, classical Khmer diet around 60 percent of the protein are shellfish and crayfish from river, lake or sea. All important part of Cambodias geography. Ad some fresh vegetables, and home made dipping sauces mixing salt, sweet, spicy, and umami flavours.

And flavourful steamed Khmer rice.

The Forbes Magazine recently advised people loving good food and unique experiences to travel to Cambodia. For the special cuisine with great flavours and no long queues.

Imperial War 0

Desde hace tres meses tenemos en España el evento Imperial capitaneado por Jonathan Hickman. Este enero ha salido Imperial War, un especial que trae 5 oneshots, dirigido por Hickman pero guionizado por otros autores, en el que vemos cosas que ocurren antes, durante y después de los tres primeros números de la mini serie. Voy a intentar no hacer muchos spoilers de los tres primeros números del evento, porque es muy recomendable leerlo, pero me temo que no se pueden hablar de estas 5 números sin mencionar cosas que ya han ocurrido así que seguid leyendo bajo vuestra propia responsabilidad (aunque ya os adelanto que voy a destripar poquísimo). […]

Ilustración de la portada del cómic Imperial War anque sin ninguna clase de letras, números o autores es solo la ilustración. En la parte superior, ocupando un tercio de la portada, aparece alguien que creo que es Nova en unos peldaños de rocas flotantes mirando a una cabeza flotante (la IA de los novacorps, creo). En los otros dos tercios aparece un fondo en blanco con Nova volando con un puño levantado y rodeado de rayos y rocas flotantes.

This is hands down the best analysis of the #imperial core and its vasall states and how to look at them from a #marxist perspective:

In 2035, an patrol in encounters poisoned wells, pungi sticks, and toe-tapper mines as they pursue a drone cell.

I can see it now.

We will revisit this post in ten years.
