Sentinel News

End of Sentinel?

The Sentinel is on hiatus and may not return. As best as we can determine now, this is the final issue. Ask Founder Deighv, if you want further information. He has chosen to go another way with users than this newsletter. We regret his decision, but it is his decision to make. The recipe pages and our Editorial page will be revised and continue in another magazine.

Thanks to all contributors over the 27 issues we have created together.;}

We encourage any reader to submit news, whether it is personal, general observations, or even questions. We'd be delighted to even receive suggestions.

By Toxic Terry, 3DP Founder
Terry recently posted on January 4, 2014: "driving to Virginia next month to pick up 3dp server!" previously he had posted last year, "3dPlanets Server will Not be ready for at least another month. Still stuck in Florida. — feeling sad."

Writer’s Digest Contest

by jdb_educator
We do have a few writers in our group, so: Writer’s Digest announces the 22nd Annual Self-Published Book Awards. WD calls it "the premier competition that shines a spotlight on the works of self-published authors."

As is becoming true of most competitions these days, you have to pay for the privilege. Entry fees apply. The site page tells prospective contestants that "Early-bird entry fees are $99 for the first entry, and $75 for each additional entry." http://www.writersdigest.com/competitions/selfpublished

A few fun searches

by jdb_educator
I figure we all use search engines, but I've been wrong before. It might even be remotely possible that I will be wrong one or two times in the future! Nevertheless, I pursue fun and encourage you to do the same.

Storm Posted

She posted this message on FB:
"Finally added a new blog post on 3DPNet about Storm and the crew. Sorry I left it on a bit on a cliffhanger but promise I won't make you wait two months before continuing the story! I am short a few crew members so if anyone's interested let me know and the role you would like to play in the stories. Thanks. ~STORM~ ~~~ December 29, 2013 at 7:28pm

Short Reviews

Man of Steel(2013) is not the old Superman. He is edgier, more conflicted and more real than ever before. Good Movie!

Despicable Me 2(2013) A fun follow up to the original. My wife and I watched it while taking breaks to view the world series.

Monster University (2013) Touching, sweet, and still filled with adventure and laughs.
