The iconic LGBT flag will be flying over Islington Town Hall once again this February to mark LGBT History Month.
Islington has a proud LGBT history, where it played host to the UK's first gay rights demonstration on Highbury Fields in 1970.
LGBT History Month 2017 has particular significance, as it marks the 50th anniversary of the Sexual Offences Act, which decriminalised homosexual acts between two men over 21 years and in private.
To mark the start of LGBT History month, a rare artwork purchased through the generosity of anonymous donors and an Art Fund Grant went on display for the first time at Islington Museum.
'World of Cats', a five-and-a-half foot, four panel screen decorated with a collage of cats, was created in 1966 by artist Kenneth Halliwell. Halliwell lived with his playwright partner, Joe Orton, between 1959 and 1967 in Noel Road, Islington.
Halliwell and Orton notoriously stole books from Islington libraries then defaced and returned them in the 1960s. Eventually they were caught and imprisoned for sixth months and it is thought their sentence was in part so harsh because of their then-illegal homosexual relationship. In 1967, Halliwell killed Orton before committing suicide.
The defaced book jackets are kept permanently in Islington Museum, along with 'World of Cats' until 13th March 2017.
Cllr Aysegul Erdon, Equalities Champion, said: "Islington's LGBT community contributes so much to our borough. Without them, we would not be the diverse and eclectic society we are today.
"It is fantastic that 'World of Cats' has been returned to its home in Islington. It is a valuable piece of our borough's cultural history and I encourage everyone to see it while it is on display."

I'm Gonna Find You (Osla Suite) Lyrics
Artist: Sarah Connor
Album: Key To My Soul
Verse 1:
Lonely days I tried to find you
Didn't know how lost I was
So many years I was so blind too
Confusing neediness for love
I believe in magic
but that's not what I need
Looking for the meaning of reality
I know
I'm gonna find you
The day I come you'll open up that door
I know
I'm gonna break through
As easy as just walking in
A halfway open door
I'm gonna find you
Verse 2:
Maybe we've met in places
or maybe that was just a dream
Inner eyes reveal what you fail to see
'til later babe
or are they future memories?
I know my heart is too young
to sing the same old song
but I long for you...
Someone have never known, baby
what would a wise heart say
to make the crazy sane
or will you recognize
my image in my eyes?
Sarah Connor Lyrics

I might be better off today, if I wrote in some mysterious ancient language. At least it might seem more exotic or mysterious.
Instead it's just going to be me trying to piece words together that may or may not make sense.
Because lately, it feels like english doesn't make sense to me. In fact, nothing about my life is making any sense to me. I feel a bit like I'm walking in a fog and God only knows if I'm about to step off the edge of the earth.
I know there are things I need to do, clients to see, dinners to make and still I feel like my eyes are only half open. I had to keep looking down at myself to make sure I had gotten dressed today because even in my 'going out of the house' clothes, I feel like I'm still in my pj's.
Does anyone else feel like they need to stay in bed for a week (you can nod and agree if you want to, no one can see you)?
Maybe it was that asteroid that nearly hit earth the other day and shifted the gravitational pull (or something like that, I wasn't paying attention).
It's not just me.
I got home from a meeting this afternoon to see that my youngest decided to take a nap. He's eleven, so any chance of him agreeing to lay down in the middle of the day is nil!
I think I've sprouted 10 different personalities over the past month. And they all want air time.... It's ridiculous!
I mean, I can't even think of 10 names to call them!
I wonder what would happen if I gave them each their own blog???
I might as well be walking through life backwards these days. At least that way I'd have a better view of what I've missed.
At the bakery today, I handed the girl a $10 bill and then waited for change. She stood there staring at me because I had my hand out and my change purse open to receive change. She said "did you need a bag or something?" and I looked at her, looked at my purse and realized the total was $10 and there would be no change.
Yep, I'm good for a laugh these days.
Gosh I feel so
Aren't you glad you popped over today for a visit?

A Fakeaway Slimming World Friendly Delight
This is a regular meal in our house. And more importantly, it's satisfying to those who love junk food.
I think it's says it all when I say Big Mac in a Bowl is one of my most well received SW recipes I have filmed for YouTube.
The only syns are are the Kraft Light Thousand Mayo. It truly does taste like McDonald's burger sauce when all the ingredients are combined.
Isn't great when you find a near enough match for the real thing? And the recipe is so simple in theory – no skills required – just mostly prep.
- 250g Extra Lean Mince Beef per person,
- 1 Chopped Onion
- Lettuce
- Gherkins
- Tomatoes (if wanting a Burger King Whopper-style taste)
- 1-2tbsp Kraft Light Thousand Island Dressing
- 2 lighter cheese slices per person
If you don't want to miss out on future recipes, then why not subscribe for free below to get the latest straight in your inbox?
- Chop up all of the salad (hold back half the onion for the beef) and place at the bottom of your bowl.
- Fry off the beef, then add the other half of the chopped onion until cooked through.
- Place the beef and onion on to each bed of salad.
- Add the two cheese slices per bowl
- Drizzle the Thousand Island dressing on each dish.
Serve with SW chips and preferably a diet coke or other sugar free fizzy drink for the real feel.
I am confident almost everyone will enjoy this recipe

A stunning beauty! Great debut!
More please
If prettiness can be shared she can make everyone in the world pretty by donating just 1% of her prettiness
Happy enough to open her legs and show off her Vagina, but not confident enough to bend over and show us the Anus.
More of this girl ! and work on her confidence please.
Beautiful girl...too much duck face
Outstanding beauty...I hope to see more of Gracia!
Gracia, you are sexy and you have a very nice, amazing ass that I could put my hands on any time
Wow! Looking forward to some inside sets of her.
31 through 35 are absolutely awesome and 42 is a CLASSIC while the last 7 shots highlight her beautiful and expressive face. For a introduction this set really does the job. Sadly we are always beset by the outdoor haters that just can't stand anything not indoors to bring the score down. IMO anything less than a 9 for this beauty is shameful. She is 10++++++++ from me and this sharp colorful set is just what the Dr ordered to show off her unbelievable body and skin tones.
Gracia is gorgeous but I find the set is mediocre. Maybe next time.
Incredible! Gracias, you give what I call "good face"; you really know how to work those sexy eyes and mouth in a variety of expressions (I'm sure Matiss' direction is also involved here). The rest of you is quite amazing too! But, it always starts with the eyes for me, and you had me hooked with photo one. Thanks Gracia and Matiss! I'm trying really hard to avoid the Gracias/Thank you puns :)
She has a face that belongs on the cover of a glamour magazine...and an ass that belongs on my face!
Beautiful. Hello and welcome Gracia. Giant start. Hope, we can se you again very soon. I am in love with your hot body.
This girl is absolutely, positively, hands down, without question, a true Met-Art Goddess.
No joke, this girl is definitely a broken furniture in every room, damage indentations on walls (in the shape of her ass), wet spots everywhere (including the ceiling), washing machine on spin cycle (even when it's not plugged in), get fired from your job, finances depleted, credit cards canceled, utilities turned off, police and SWAT teams outside, kind'a girl.
Comment of the day... Gracia definitely looks like trouble, in the best possible way :-)
What a stunning model! Anyone out there remember Bridget Bardot?
I sure hope she doesn't go the way that Barbot went!
I do and Gracia does have that look about her.
Matiss, gracias por Gracia!
INSTANT FAVORITE! WOW! Gracia charms and delights with her long strawberry blonde hair, mesmerizing green eyes, fair skin and MAGNIFICENT BUTTOCKS. Ooof ooof ooof. Looks like she attended the same school of sassy facial expressions as Georgia, too. What an enchantress! More please.
Gracias, Gracia. Welcome to MET! :)
She looks like Yarina-a from russia. GOOD!!!
Absolutely gorgeous! This girl ticks off all my preferences! pretty face, gorgeous eyes, lovely smile, Strong shapely legs, awesome butt and cute breasts. Whats not to like. This is another Matiss find that should move to the top quite quickly. Those standing full body shots are classic goddess! Despite OP complaints I really like these outdoor sets. Nobody does it better and we need this sort of art work to balance out the site. All bedroom shots get a bit boring after a while. The outdoor sets give the models more freedom to move and show off their more than ample charms and Garcia has a spectacular list of charms to show us!
"What's not to like," indeed. Note that, in shots 61-66, her pussy is enshrouded in shadow, something which would not likely happen in an indoor shoot, where lighting is more easily controlled.
"DITTO" to all you said. I love the outdoor sets myself.
I don't know how Matiss keeps finding such beauties but I prey he never runs out! An absolute goddess!
Gracia you are a peach! Welcome to MA you sweet darling. A delicious and inviting debut. What a sexy warm smile you have and ravishing body. You have a fine bottom and I'm counting the days to your second set and seeing much more of it. 8)
A lot of the sets by Matiss are very similar (naked girl.blue sky and plenty of green).The girls are similar too but they are all plcture perfection.Can we try some new settings.Gracia is adorable.

So something that I am extremely thankful for these days is how much time we have my husband around! You can see the difference in the kiddos and it just makes for a much happier home-life. Not that we regret the life we lived the first 2 years of our precious baby's life one bit, but now that Daddy is very important to us and getting to have him here most of the evenings in the week is such a blessing...Thank you Lord!

Outmaneuvering the Humbug!
I too was reminiscing about my childhood and Christmas. Spending many many years so blessed and loving it. Last year was different wasn't sure why. I was very depressed and just couldn't get a handle on it. Bringing in the new year surrounded by good friends but they couldn't see my tears. I was full of anxiety. But as 2016 started rolling out my life was starting to come together. I understood that Life has a way of getting in your way when making plans. Expectations! So this year no expectation on me nor do I put it on someone else. This year I surround myself with all my friends and Family and look forward to 2017. A new year and a new home in a different city. Don't obsess of what was look forward to what can be. May you find happiness in your holiday season.

Throughout The Car Industry
"Motor Cars By Public Tender": Australian For "Auto Auction"
Though seemingly tame at first blush compared to the live "under-the-lights" pressure-cooker-style of auction most of us are used to, in many ways a sale "by public tender"—like Sotheby's Australia's "Important Collectors' Motor Cars" event in Sydney—can be even more nerve-racking for buyer and seller alike.
Normally—if that's even the right word to use—it's pretty straight-forward. If you just keep on bidding until everyone else quits, the car—or whatever—is yours.
But where's the mystery—and gentility—in that?...
I have to admit up front that I wasn't versed in the ways of a public tender sale before I engaged in some serious explanatory back-and-forth with James Nicholls, Sotheby's Australia's Head of Collectors' Cars.
Part of the reason for that exchange was that I couldn't believe that what I was hearing was what I was hearing. The format is beautifully—and brutally—simple: You check out the merchandise in "catalogue" form and/or in person at several preview days, then you write down the maximum amount you're willing to pay and turn it in and wait.
Simple, right?
Well, consider this: your bid is what it is and cannot change. So long as at least one bid exceeds the seller's "reserve" price on the car, the fact that you were just a dollar short "winning" the car—a dollar you'd have gladly added—that's too bad for you.
And on the other end, instead of having a system like eBay's—wherein you set your maximum amount and it adds to your bid only the amount necessary to keep you "ahead" of any competing buyer's bid—here your "winning" top price is THE price, even if the next-highest bidder's amount was thousands less than yours.
It's like a high-dollar game of "chicken" wherein everyone is wearing blindfolds and there are dozens of cars out there going at each other from all different directions (but more refined, in an upper-crusty sort of way).
Whether or not this "one bite at the cherry" system means more dollars in a seller's pocket is debatable, but well-established auction houses like Sotheby's Australia wouldn't do it this way if it didn't work in favor of buyer and seller alike. And as this is a customer-service deal like most others, ALL auction houses and styles—or at least every one I've ever heard of—treat the "unsuccessful" end of "formal" bidding as the starting point for tireless negotiation on their part to eventually bring buyers and sellers together whenever possible.
[A sale's a sale, folks, and auction houses make their money on SELLING things, not just SHOWING them to bidders.]
This particular sale—Sotheby's Australia's "Important Collectors' Motor Cars" event in Sydney, NSW—for example, has in-person preview days from Thurs. Oct. 13 to Sat. Oct. 15, with all bids "due" by noon local time on Monday the 17th. Fortunately for the weak-of-heart (or -stomach), the bids "tendered" are tallied—and "winners" are notified—by that same afternoon.
So, which "style" would you prefer? I've spent far too many hours in the circus-like atmosphere endemic of many live auctions, as alcohol from the "bidder's bar," the potential to be shown bidding during prime-time television coverage, and the overabundance of ego and sheer "gotta have it" that can exist between competing moneyed men (and women) conspire to drive bid prices into the stratosphere.
But to have the process distilled down to some envelopes being turned in, bids tallied, and high-bidders notified in short order is disorienting in its own way.
My view? On the face of it, I think I'd take all the "circus" I could get, whether as a buyer or a seller. There's something to be said for the bid-raising power of frenzied (and inebriated) competition. There's value, too, in having the ability to fine-tune your bid on-the-fly on your way to an immediate-gratification-style "win".
Then again, I'd venture to guess that if I had the gentility—and wealth—that's surely common in Sotheby's clientele, I'm sure I'd be horrified at the cattle-call atmosphere common to most live car auctions, and would never even consider setting foot in any of those roaring-loud tent-based events where chances are good that you'll get cheap beer spilled on your expensive clothing by persons as sweaty and uncouth as they are boorish and overweight.
What could be more refined than using your Mont Blanc fountain pen to write your maximum bid on fine linen stationery, carefully folding it into a foil-lined envelope, submitting it by courier to the auction house, and then waiting in quiet comfort wherever you choose to receive word of your intended's selling price?
[Of course, there's always something to be said about a live auction's having all the cheap beer, sugary churros, and salty, oversized soft pretzels you could want within easy reach. Then again, if you're wealthy enough, you could always arrange to have that in-house….]

The past decade has seen unimaginable shifts in technology use. From the development of the first smartphone in 2003, to the rise of "Machine-to-Machine" connections, where everything from the humble street lamp to refrigerators are being connected to the Web, increasing the dependency on always-on connectivity. However, new research among 350 global channel partners suggests that enterprise data centers are not delivering on the needs of modern business. Specifically, enterprises state that data center availability is of paramount concern, thereby limiting innovation and the adoption of next-generation applications and services (such as virtualization, mobility and software-defined networking).
Why is this happening? Why are businesses still suffering from data center inefficiencies in an age when we are all acutely aware of the importance of IT to drive commercial effectiveness? It seems that it boils down to a lack of understanding and also investment. A third of channel partners felt that customers invested to 'keep the lights on', but little more. The survey has also found that network fabric is gaining recognition as the foundation for data center evolution, but customers' reactive approach to network investment is risking business growth and stability.
So why is this good news for our channel? This poses an immediate opportunity for the channel to seize a competitive advantage by becoming strategic advisors to global enterprises by helping them understand how fabric-based data center environments deliver tomorrow's networks today. For channel partners to prosper, they need to be able to take customers on the journey to an agile, robust and high performance networking environment, helping them to prepare for the next-wave of innovation by deploying a future-proof network… today.

The latest give-away (that I've seen so far anyway) is from Edwin on his 'Thoughts of a Depressive Diplomatist' blog. He's offering a whole raft of interesting things, including some very tasty books so if you want to have a go, look here.
Short, fat and unassuming, I have extended the boundaries of indifferent posting and spurious comment within the interweb community to previously unimagined levels of banality. This has been achieved without fear of retribution or negative comment so if you're interested in thought patterns that tumble around the inside of my head like old underpants in a washing machine then this is for you.

Excerpts from "High Technology and the Ground of Being"
In the United States and the former Soviet Union,
scientists competed to perfect optical phase conjugation—a process that
can reverse the motion of a beam of light, causing an image scrambled by
an irregular medium (such as frosted glass) to return to its original,
undistorted form. They hoped to use reversed light beams to focus laser
weapons on enemy missiles.
At Syracuse University an eminent physicist appeared before a large audience. A professor of religion introduced him as the man who may save the world from the fragmentation of modern Western thinking and bring people to a platform of transcendental wholeness. The physicist then began expounding metaphysical ideas based on physics and Eastern philosophy.
Although it may seem surprising, the military research work and the university lecture share a common foundation in a fundamental feature of the laws of physics. To understand how this is so, let us first consider optical phase conjugation.
The application of the technology of optical phase conjugation to "star wars" weapons systems is still in the conceptual stage, but the unscrambling of light that has passed through frosted glass has actually been demonstrated.
In a typical experiment, light is reflected from an object and passes through frosted glass, causing the light beam to distort in a complicated way. The beam then reflects from a device called a phase conjugate mirror, which reverses the distorted beam and passes it back through the frosted glass. When the light enters an observer's eye, he perceives a clear, undistorted image of the original object instead of a garbled blur, which he would see if the image were reflected back through the glass by an ordinary mirror.
As the reflected beam leaves the phase conjugate mirror, it has the curious properties that (l) it encodes information for the original image in a distorted, unrecognizable form, and (2) as time passes, the apparently random distortion is reduced, and the information contained by the beam becomes clearly manifest. Normally we would expect to see just the opposite—a pattern containing meaningful information will gradually degrade until the information is irretrievably lost.
According to classical physical theory, however, the laws of physical dynamics are reversible, and thus it is possible in theory for any physical process to run backward and recreate an earlier state of affairs from its later end product. This implies that information is never actually lost as a result of physical transformations, and in principle it might be possible to again extract the information from the cosmic energy background. The restoration of a garbled image by a phase conjugate mirror seems to provide an example of this. . . .

(UPI) New York, June 13 (Petra) — The United Nations refugee agency has urged Egyptian authorities to reconsider new restrictions imposed recently on the entry of Syrians into Egypt after the ouster of President Mohammad Morsi, including the condition to acquire a visa.
The UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) expressed deep concern over the tightening of restrictions which saw Egyptian authorities returning a plane with 100 Syrians on board.
"I appeal to Egyptian authorities, as I did with other governments in the world, to accept and protect all Syrian refugees in their countries," said UNHCR Commissioner Antonio Guterres, adding that he fully understood challenges that Egypt faced at present.
Security sources at the Cairo airport said earlier that Egyptian authorities had asked the airline companies not to take Syrians on board their flights to Egypt without first acquiring a visa and a security stamp from Egyptian embassies and consulates abroad. The condition was applicable to all Syrians of all age groups.
On Monday, security officials at the Cairo airport ordered a Syrian Arab Airlines plane to return to Latakia with all Syrian passengers on board after the new restrictions came into force.
Egypt is currently home to about 90,000 Syrians registered or awaiting registration as refugees.

The minute we walked in the door I could see that not only had the organisation been around for 27 years, a lot of the furniture and devices had too! Ignore computerized accounting programs, this workplace used a one-write system. When my customer stepped on the scale, it was a mechanical scale, not a digital one.

Financial investment value – Homes with gorgeous, well-cared for swimming pools tend to offer faster than houses without them. This investment is one that can continue to pay off for a buyer in today and the long run.
This is a new method of dieting being promoted through social websites and online marketing techniques. The concept here is to lower your everyday calorie intake a lot that your body is literally required to slim down. The issue with this kind of weight loss program is a lack of proper nutrients. It is almost difficult to reach what is recommended as a day-to-day allowance with such tight limitations on just how much you can consume. Many of these programs would motivate a 550-650 calorie daily consuming schedule. Even with the added extremely solutions they attempt to sell you on, this is a dangerous method to slim down even for those who want to go to extremes.
Workout Plan That You Want
Snacking practices, these are probably among the most important things to change. Choose healthy treats, celery, carrot sticks, low fat cheeses, lowfat juices, fruits, and yogurts are some examples. Set those French fries aside, get rid of the soda and sugary drinks. Ban those unhealthy deep fried foods, cakes, sweets and sweet snacks, remove them from the home! Explore the healthy snack world! Go online, you will find tons appetisers, snacks, meal accompaniments, even motion picture going and Celebration treats that'll satisfy every craving.
A great example of this is coffee: I will frequently select up a coffee from one of those huge chain coffee bar in the early afternoon. I do not really consider coffee as being filled with calories and fat, regardless of knowing it has cream and sugar in it. I suggest, it is just contributed to taste, right?

The blurry sonar image of an object deep in the South Atlantic was a sunken fishing vessel not an Argentine submarine that went missing on Nov. 15 with 44 crew members, the country's navy said Saturday, ending hopes that the sub had been located.
Rescuers had sent an unmanned Russian submersible to review the 60-meter-long object located at 477 meters (1,565 feet) below sea level.
The missing submarine, the ARA San Juan, was roughly that length — 66 meters — and officials said the image was "unclear." They sent the submersible to "visually verify" if it was indeed the San Juan.
"It was confirmed that it wasn't the submarine's shell" but a sunken fishing vessel, Argentine navy spokesman Enrique Balbi said later Saturday.
The navy "regrets that without a rigorous analysis expectations were generated in the families and society, which must now face another frustration," Balbi said.
Before Balbi's announcement, authorities had said that if the image did not reveal any new clues, the search would focus on other signals of interest detected in parts of the South Atlantic where the vessel was last heard from.
Argentina's navy said on Thursday that it is no longer looking for survivors although a multinational operation will continue searching for the vessel.
"The extreme environment, the time elapsed and the lack of any evidence eliminates a scenario compatible with human life," Balbi said. "These are hours of intense pain and anguish (for relatives) in light of the loss of their loved ones, our 44 comrades."
The German-made submarine went missing as it was journeying from the extreme southern port of Ushuaia to the city of Mar del Plata, about 250 miles (400 kilometers) southeast of Buenos Aires.
The navy has said the vessel's captain reported that water entered the snorkel and caused one of the submarine's batteries to short circuit. An explosion was later detected around the time and place where the San Juan last made contact.

I thought I would share my two favourite products that help keep my lips super soft and mistletoe-ready!
Every other night before bed I use Lush's Santa's Lip Scrub to buff any dry patches from my lips and then remove any excess with a little warm water. It is cola flavoured too and tastes super yummy on your lips!
After using Santa's Lip Scrub, and also every night before bed, I then apply a generous amount of Elizabeth Arden's Eight Hour Lip Balm to my lips. This is a lovely treatment for your lips and I wake up every morning with softer and smoother lips. This product is also great in the summer too as it contains SPF 20 to help protect your lips against damaging UV rays.

Regarding Somatizing and Hypochondria
Do your doctors believe you? Or are you Somatizing or just a hypochondriac?
Somatizing Patients: Part I. Practical Diagnosis
Somatizing Patients: Part II. Practical Management
Somatization by Adriana Feder, MD
Well apparently mine think I am. I never went out of the way to go to the doctor, I was in pain for over 2 years before I decided to go. How can you get out of this matrix? [ and it is a matrix, because if you genuinely believe your condition is real, how can you tell if you are somatizing? ]
Symptoms and Syndromes Commonly Reported by Patients with Somatization
|Gastrointestinal symptoms
Abdominal pain
Bloating and excessive gas
Food intolerances
Pain symptoms
Cardiopulmonary symptoms
|Pseudoneurologic symptoms
Difficulty swallowing
Loss of voice
Double or blurred vision
Difficulty walking
Seizures (pseudoseizures)
Muscle weakness
Difficulty urinating
Reproductive organ symptoms
Vague "food allergies"
Atypical chest pain
Temporomandibular joint syndrome
Chronic fatigue syndrome
Vague "vitamin deficiency"
Premenstrual syndrome
Multiple chemical sensitivity
Alot of these symptoms relate to connective tissue disorders, fibromyalgia, and Immune System Disorders.
My joint pain is real and I waited for two years before I went to a doctor? So I'm trying to get a doctors attention… right. Once upon a time I went to the ER for Excessive Menstrual Bleeding and Fainting. That morning I woke up and almost blacked out, my arms felt heavy and I was on my 'period' I wasn't going to mention it at all to the ER people, except I told my hubby it might be excessive as it was heavy for me at the time… I wasn't having periods for months at a time due to my Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome as diagnosed my my current doctor. My husband mentioned it not me, am I Somatizing there too? I have had pleurisy that I haven't gone to the doctor ever for and I've had it since I was a child, only told my mother once and never brought it up again till I met my hubby, and I suppose that isn't real also. I suppose my hypermobile joints aren't real either (will be posting pictures soon) Yes I'm a bit irate at the medical system of late, most doctors are lazy and are not up to speed on the illnesses that modern day life causes us… if they don't understand it or if people complain to often about it, we are all hypochondriacs eh?
How do we get our point across if they wont listen to us in the first place? How do you eventually learn to manage your pain? This is what I'm struggling to deal with at the moment, and it is so stressful.
The whole thing is, I am giving the doctor around $60 a pop to sit there and JUDGE ME.
Whoah, I thought I was paying for him to treat me, and help me.
If you really are ill don't give up.
My Mother who was Diagnosed with Cancer January of 2007 brought in her diagnosis on printer paper. The doctor thought she was making it up… till she made them look closer at her. The tumor was pressing on her chest (literally suffocating her), and they wanted her to do a stress test by running on a treadmill.
Honestly I don't want to lie, I don't want to somatize or be a hypochondriac! Does anyone have any advice? I mean… if I'm really hurting how can I tell if I am one? Now I'm really confused. Somatizing or really hurting? =( If I can convince myself to hurt this bad… I don't know if there is hope for me anymore. Really.
My Letter to my Doctor 12-21-06
Dear Doctor (the name of my dr. shall remain confidential)
I am writing this description of my symptoms because I find it easier to write them down. I have looked everywhere online for information of my symptoms, and I feel that I have Hybermobility Syndrome and Fibromyalgia. I want to get the correct diagnosis of course so I will leave that part up to you. In this letter will tell you how I feel everyday, past occurances that may be related, and finally how I feel it might all be related to fibromyalgia.
My Present Symptoms, and a synopsis of my day.
When I wake in the morning I am greeted with a feeling of my body being paralyzed with pain. I am guessing this is morning stiffness. The first thing I am aware of is my hip, a deep throbbing pain that radiates all the way down my thigh, then I realize how achy the rest of my body is. I climb out of bed, every possible back muscle hurting as much as it possibly can without being beaten physically. My hips at this point are experiencing both a radiating and sharp pain right in the joint… stabbing me hard, and sometimes knocking me breathless. I pause for a few moments normally to brace myself and think to myself "it's going to be a long day". But this is my every day, and it has been for years.
I've somewhat gotten used to it, so that I know what to expect in the mornings, it's almost become part of my routine, although it does make me quite cranky. I have woken up this way since age 19. At first it was only my hips, the same pain as now. But then it began to encompass my whole body, back shoulders, arms, legs, but the pain has mainly stuck to my hips and back areas. I blamed this pain for the longest time on Depo Provera, a birth control shot. The first time I received a depo injection must have been December '01 (I was 217 pounds.) the last time I received an injection most likely was June or July '02 right before my father died. (dates in my head are foggy, so if I'm not accurate forgive me, I am stating it as best as I can remember. But I can probably get my medical record if this is needed later.)
My mind is so blurry, i don't even remember exactly the year my father passed, i have to ask my mom all of the time. I can't even remember when I was married, or any dates. And names and faces are hard to remember alot also. I have anxiety and depression. I used to feel extremely suicidal but now I want to live, that's why I'm making an effort to get better now. I wanted to die because I felt I was being a burden, and I just don't want to deal with physical pain anymore. On top of that I am stressed about my lack of insurance, and inability to work ( physical jobs, and I'm sure most office jobs also due to my sitting issues)
Sitting and Standing are difficult for me for long periods of time. When I am sitting sometimes my legs feel swollen and like hard plastic. Sometimes they go numb, I have no clue why. My back, shoulders, neck, and hips kill me when I am trying to do computer work, or even playing games. While sitting on a recliner or a couch I must change positions all of the time due to one hip aching too bad, this happens within about 5 minutes of sitting down. I am never unaware of my hip pain it is always there as a dull ache, I want to avoid the sharp stabbing pain… and that makes me switch positions.
Standing is something I can't really do for over 5 minutes. I don't leave the house anymore. Period. I currently haven't been out shopping for over a month. If I do go out I always need a cart for support. I cannot let myself use the motorized chairs even though secretly I know I probably should. Anxiety and Back pain are the two reasons I never go out anymore. My life has become my living room. My last excursion outside was to purchase a puppy to help me with my depression symptoms. I only went along so I could pick out the one I wanted for myself and even then I was reluctant. The people were very social and had me standing for an hour, I was about to cry. The pain was so intense I started to black out, and nearly fell in their house. I do not speak up for myself very often, but I blurted out I needed to sit down because I was passing out. This is one of the events that I took as a warning call, and they agreed I should see a doctor. To describe the standing pain as best as I can I would have to say it is akin to having your back hacked to pieces over and over again with an axe. It is sharp, intense, and the worst pain I have ever dealt with in my life. It brings me to tears. I rate this pain a definite 10.
The longest thing I normally stand for is when I am preparing food (ie: a sandwich) I will lay the bread out, and by the time I get the salad dressing out there is a burning sensation. I'm guessing within seconds. I can finish making the sandwich and be ok… but it impacts me for the rest of the day… If I get to the burning point my back will not stop hurting till next morning or even later. Any strain on my muscles or joints seems to linger, this does not only occur in my back. But the back seems the worst to strain. The pain as a result of standing has been with me as far back as age 14-15. I remember working as a dishwasher for my family's restaurant and being in tears, slow at working, and requiring help to finish the dishes. But I tried my best. But it has never been this horrible.
While writing or dealing with computers I get aches in my hands, wrists, and arms. When getting close to the blackout point while standing, my stomach feels like it's pushing forward and I am concerned I might have a hernia. I was born with one, I've read it's not uncommon for it to reoccur. I frequently get stomache pain, nausea without vomiting. I am also concerned it might be an ulcer. I frequently have what I consider to be constipation (and diarrhea when i eat certain foods) I also feel tired all of the time, and have difficulty concentrating often. I cannot complete most things required for proper self care and hygiene allthough I try my best. Getting dressed is a challenge because my arms go limp when I attempt daily tasks that require alot of their use. It takes me longer than average to put my clothes on, get a bath, and take care of myself. It exhausts me. My husband has been helping me with nearly everything except hygeine, he runs errands for me in the house, and takes care of everything that I can't (which is everything)
Some Additional Concerns:
In the past I have passed out and blacked out on a number of occasions. The first that I can remember was in kindergarten… I was leaning forward in a chair and i blacked out and hit my head on the table, it required stitches. In 2nd or 3rd grade I was walking in from recess, I blacked out and ran into a glass wall. In charter hospital of paducah I was waiting in line to get my vital signs checked when I blacked out again… they said I ran at full speed into the front desk. I had no clue what had happened. At age 19 I was in a mall store talking to a clerk when I fell to my knees and gained conciousness just before i hit my head into the glass desk. These above events were not as a result of any pain, in fact I remember feeling perfectly fine on all of these occasions except the last one, where I had mild back pain from walking stress.
Hypermobility Syndrome & Fibromyalgia:I found HMS quite by accident online. I was searching to find out why my bones are always cracking. (most of the day my bones make cracking noises and pop with movement) I realized that I fit in with the critera of this syndrome. I can bend my thumb to my wrist, and I'm pretty sure I can do everything else except putting my hands flat on the floor, but I come close (even at my weight) This is the syndrome that eventually led me to read about Fibromyalgia. I also feel I fit alot of the fibro criterea, but I would like to leave the diagnosing part up to you. In the end I just would like to feel better and ease the pain.
How did it come to this?
Here I am, uninsured, 400 pounds. I can barely do anything because of my chronic pain, I feel guilty as hell because I rely on my husband to help me with menial tasks. I am in a sticky situation.
It's a vicious cycle really. Feel Immense Pain > Become depressed > Eat to Soothe Depression/Pain > Gain weight > Feel more Pain/Depression as my weight increases. > Diet to lose weight > Feel Immense Pain.
I am aware that I am not the only person in the world living this cycle. I have come to believe the pain I feel is from my Hyper mobility syndrome. Remember that kid who could bend their fingers in all the wrong ways… that girl who was extremely flexible? Yeah that's me. But I've come to learn that while as a child that was fun and games it can have serious consequences as I get older. My joints are loose and by doing daily activities i constantly injure myself. I am in pain every day from the moment I wake up to the moment I sleep. This disorder is also related to fybromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. This is a disabling condition, and I'm sure with my weight it can't be good.
Now some of you may criticize me for my weight, and blame my aches and pains on weight or age… I am 23 years old, and I have been hurting like this since i was 14 and it progressively got worse. At the age of 19 I first noticed it while I was being sedentary after sleeping, my hips ached and I was sore and stiff in the morning. This was also when I weighed the least in my life in relation to my height. I weighed 200 pounds after losing 100 pounds. Before age 19 I only hurt while being active, with a stabbing sharp back pain, and of course my feet hurt. Lately my pain has been getting a lot worse, and I feel like dying to escape from the pain and the guilt that I suffer.
My depression has gotten much worse and seems to relate to the pain, the frustration I feel from not being able to work, and provide for my family makes me insane with guilt. Today as I start this blog I am on my last dollar, yes just one left. I have to ask myself how did it come to this? How did I allow my life to go so far downhill? I'm educated and smart. Why do I have to suffer pain and depression? … and why aren't there any options for me? Why isn't there any help for someone in a situation beyond control? Why has our government not provided me with assistance? Why wasn't I able to get personal health insurance for any cost while I had resources?
In addition to the hell I am going through now I am also a survivor of abuse. I say that because I feel I have overcome the emotional pain of being verbally, physically, and sexually abused as a child. The depression I feel now if guilt and regret for not being a whole person, not being able to live my life. The fear of pain is overwhelming.

The US fintech firm MoneyGram has received an increased buyout deal from China's Ant Financial. The reports suggest the Chinese company increased its bid to buy the fintech firm by 36%, but regulatory hurdles are still on the horizon.
Improving the bid to acquire the fintech firm
Ant Financial, which is an Alibaba subsidiary, has offered to buy MoneyGram's shares for $18 per share, giving the electronic payment firm a total valuation of $1.2 billion. The offer has gone up by 36% from the $13.25 share price the Chinese company had previously proposed for the US firm.
Furthermore, it's higher than a rival bid made by Euronet Worldwide last month. The company offered to buy MoneyGram for $15.20 per share. However, Euronet Worldwide might not have to bury its buyout dreams just yet, as the deal with it would be more agreeable in terms of the regulatory authorities in the US.
Ant Financial and MoneyGram have released a statement saying they are making progress and they hope to close the deal this year.
Pamela Patsley, executive chairman of MoneyGram, said the company continues "to be excited about the transaction, which we are confident will provide substantial benefits to all of our stakeholders, including stockholders, customers, agents and employees".
Ant Financial is an Alibaba subsidiary and it has approached the fintech sector with a holistic approach in recent months. It recently announced a Joint Venture in Indonesia to provide customers with payment and financial services. The firm is set to increase its customer acquisition and the acquisition of MoneyGram would be another sweet deal for the firm.
The regulatory hurdles ahead
The Chinese company is yet to receive a go-ahead from the US Committee on Foreign Investment (CFIUS), which is the country's regulatory arm on acquisitions that might have a national security element to them.
CFIUS has been a problem for many Chinese firms interested in US companies, especially in the technology sector. The hurdle might be especially troublesome now that tensions between China and the US are rising due to trade and foreign policy disputes.
Ant Financial has already taken steps to allay concerns. On Monday, it told it wouldn't start collecting data on MoneyGram's US users on non-US servers. It has also guaranteed the unit will remain separate from Ant Financial. The server guarantee is a slight swipe at Euronet, which has said the location of the servers would be irrelevant.
One of the world's biggest firms in the market
The deal is lucrative for Ant Financial, as it would provide it with an access to new markets. MoneyGram is among the world's biggest remittance market players and it could help the Chinese company build a cross-commerce border network.
James Lloyd, Asia Pacific Fintech leader at EY told the Insurance Journal, "The promotion of global digital financial inclusion requires global infrastructure. MoneyGram offers that connectivity between developed and developing markets."
MoneyGram operates from its Dallas headquarters, although its services are available in 200 countries.

End of Summer
We spent one of our last August days at the aquarium in Jenks. They had tons if cool fish, big and small. Plus lots of touch and feed areas. We hasn't been this summer, but we are having some nice hot days so we needed an indoor activity. We went with Mia, a little girl that Cole used to go to daycare with, and her mom, who's staying home this year too. I think the kids had lots of fun, and we had lunch at Chick-fil-a too.

[For the background on this series, see here.]
After a brief respite, the jangly eighties series is back. Today's episode features two former bands of legendary Austin guitarist Alejandro Escovedo.
Rank And File started with a bang in 1982, but soon fizzled. Their first record, Sundown, is worth hearing. In a review that will entice many regular readers of this blog, All Music Guide decscribed it as "a gem of tuneful, Byrds-ian pop, with a healthy dollop of Gram Parsons and Merle Haggard to boot." I don't know if I would go quite that far, but it's definitely an enjoyable listen. Try these two tracks:
Rank And File – Amanda Ruth.
Rank And File – Rank And File.
(buy album).
Not long after the release of Sundown, Escovedo quit Rank And File to form the True Believers with his brother Javier. The True Believers were a loud, three-guitar band. (I know how loud they were from first-hand experience.) They quickly became all the rage in Austin, and beyond, in the mid-1980s. Unfortunately, they couldn't capitalize on the buzz. Their first record, released on Rounder, failed to capture the raucous nature of their live show. It's now out of print.
The True Believers' "second" album, which was to be their major-label debut on EMI-America wasn't released at all. As explained in the All Music Guide:
"The second album was a far stronger representation of the True Believers than the debut, but shortly after it was completed, EMI-America's parent company decided to fold the label into another affiliated company, Manhattan Records, and much of EMI-America's roster was dropped, including the True Believers. The second album was pulled from the release schedule only two weeks before it was scheduled to ship, and the label's asking price for the master tapes was far more than the band could afford to pay."
The music business can be cruel. Years later, after the band broke up, the True Believers' debut and the lost second album were finally released together on a single CD called Hard Road, but that too is now out of print.
Here are one standout track from the debut and two highlights from the lost second album:
True Believers – The Rain Won't Help You When It's Over.
True Believers – She's Got.
True Believers – One Moment To Another.
(buy album).
Alejandro Esovedo's greatest critical success has come as a solo artist. A favorite of mine is this song from his 1992 solo debut album, Gravity:
Alejandro Escovedo – Five Hearts Breaking (buy album).
Just for fun, here is Whiskeytown's cover of The Rain Won't Help:
Whiskeytown – The Rain Won't Help You When It's Over (mp3). (This comes from the Those Weren't The Days bootleg, which you can find at Broadcaster House.)

Frankly, that Rank and File album is one of the best of all-time period. Of course, I already have it. Great post.

Anon, thanks for your comment. That's really high praise. I'm not sure if Sundown ranks up there with Highway 61 Revisted, Pet Sounds, or Kind of Blue, but it's one that any fan of alt-country or country-rock should have in their collection.

Rank & File were another great, underrated band. And although I may be in the minority, I think I like "Long Gone Dead" even better than Sundown. "Tell Her I Love Her" is a perfect fusion of power pop and what was later called alt-country.
What are the Kinmans up to these days anyway?

Nice post, Paul. I actually played the True Believers on last week's show.
Have you seen this old clip from that great show that aired on MTV in the 80's: IRS' The Cutting Edge, hosted by Peter Zaremba of the Fleshtones. Man, that was a great show . . .
True Believers on the Cutting Edge

I saw that the True Believers were on your set list (I'm a subscriber to your web page). That's funny because I hardly ever hear anything about them anymore.
Thanks for the clip. I don't recall ever seeing it before. The next installment of my little 1980s series is going to be on the Fleshtones.

The true Believers are one of the greatest bands of all time, and it's a shame that they didn't enjoy a greater level of success.
I completely agree with you about the Believers' wall of sound - as good as they are on record, they were even better live.
Alejandro is a truly inspired artist - it seems that every project he involves himself with is guaranteed to be incredible.
Do you plan on covering any of Austin's other New Sincerity bands (Zeitgeist, Glass Eye, Doctor's Mob, etc)?
Thanks for stirring up some great memories with this series of posts - keep 'em coming!
- February 15, 2008 at 2:06 PM
- Paul said...
Hey Ken, thanks for the great comment. All I own out of the bands you mentioned is the first Zeitgeist album (Translate Slowly) and their Atlantic City 12" LP. I was planning to include a track or two from them one in my final wrap up of the series (the odds and ends). Next jangly 80s post will be a big one about R.E.M., Let's Active, Pylon, Don Dixon, and Marti Jones.

would it be possible to post that Reivers/Zeitgeist version of "Atlantic City" I can't find it anywhere.
enjoy reading your stuff. thanks!

A very distant cousin of mine who is an English professor sent out an early holiday letter this year with a contest to write some sort of Christmas poem. The winner will get his or her poem published in their December holiday letter and a prize of $100. At first I tossed the letter to the side, but then I got to thinking…an extra $100 would be awfully nice. The deadline is tomorrow, so of course I procrastinated and wrote the poem today. I love to write, but poetry is not my thing. However, I came up with a light-hearted little ditty that I'm hoping will spike me to the top of their short list (OK, what I'm really banking on is that no one else bothered to write a poem). So here it is:
(Oh, I need a title. Any ideas? And…I think the ending is a little weak, so any suggestions before I officially submit the poem tomorrow would be greatly appreciated. And my last request for advice: do you like the <sigh>towards the end of the poem or should I cut it out?)
(If, based on the advice you give me, my poem is accepted as the winner, you will receive my sincere gratitude but not one penny of the prize money.) 😉
…NOT to be sung to the tune of "Oh, Christmas Tree," btw…
Oh, Christmas Tree. Oh, Christmas Tree.
How lovely are your branches.
My little son pulls you down
In ornamental avalanches.
The fat little Santa from my first year
The bulb from my great-grandma
Are crushed and how I long to cry
With loud holiday drama.
The next morning, though, I awake
With sweet anticipation.
The art of cookies must be passed
Down to the next generation.
Hours later I emerge
Sticky and flour-y and sick,
And decide that perhaps next year
A bakery might just do the trick.
I decide to go and Christmas shop.
My babysitter bails.
We scuttle from the mall
Amid toddler tantrums, screams, and wails.
We escape the mall as fast as I,
My bags, and child are able.
I decide we need to spend some time
With the baby in the stable.
In awe I lead him by the hand
To gaze with reverence at the manger.
I do not know that holy child
Is cloaked in mortal danger.
The baby curled up in the hay
Looks like a soft, fun ball.
In horror I watch as with delight
Jack hurls him down the hall.
I could give you cookie crumbles
Or a half-wrapped Christmas gift,
But instead let's think about
How my priorities need to shift.
So I will wrap up for you
Some faith, family, hope, and joy.
These gifts will last much longer
Than a transient Christmas toy.

In the 21st century terrorist threat represents an additional challenge in the area of human rights protection. Thus, human rights institutions are faced with additional responsibility in the context of state action in combatting terrorism. These were the central topics of the working meeting titled Protecting Human Rights While Countering Terrorism organized on 20 May 2016 in Paris by the COE's Commissioner for Human Rights Nils Muižnieks and ENNHRI (the European Network of National Human Rights Institutions, chaired by the Ombudswoman of the Republic of Croatia, Lora Vidović).

If we hear the word "film", then what we have in mind is a comedy, romantic, adventure, cartoon, and much more. Not only from among the children, everyone from all walks of life likes movies that fit with their age. But we need to know the background and history of filmmaking up to what we see today. Movies are works of art and culture that are mass media of hearing-sight communications made on the basis of cinematography by being recorded on celluloid bands, video tapes, video discs, and / or other technological inventions of any kind, type and size through chemical, electronic, or other process processes, with or without sound, which can be demonstrated and / or displayed by mechanical, electronic, and projection systems / or other. To produce the best movie you can take wherever you want, you can do it by converting by using our services,super 8 film to dvd.
The history of film development begins with the invention of moving pictures demonstrated by Eadweard Muybridge of Stanford University by making 16 pictures or frames of horses running. This incident occurred in 1878. Of the 16 images of running horses are strung together and moved in sequence to produce the first successful moving image in the world. From here the idea of ??making a film appear.

43 years ago today, the famous Concert for Bangladesh was staged in New York City's Madison Square Garden. It was actually two concerts, organized by George Harrison and Ravi Shankar (working with UNICEF) to raise relief funds for the refugees of Bangladesh, victims of the 1971 war between East and West Pakistan. The first benefit concert of its kind, it paved the way for the large benefit concerts of the 80s, Live Aid and Farm Aid. In addition to Harrison and Shankar, the shows featured Ringo Starr, Eric Clapton, Billy Preston, Leon Russell and in only his second concert performance in five years, Bob Dylan.
In 1971 Bangladesh was a new country, forged out of The Bangladesh Liberation War. East Pakistan, as the country had previously been called, battled West Pakistan in a conflict that lasted nine months. It was one of the bloodiest chapters in human history, in which between two and four hundred thousand Bangladeshi women were assaulted in a campaign of genocidal rape conducted by the Pakistani military and Bengali militias, and nearly 30 million people were displaced, including 10 million refugees the majority of whom were Hindu.
Bangladesh today is one of the world's most densely populated areas with about 150 million people. 90% are Muslim. It remains a place of unrest. Recent election days have been extremely violent. According United Nations reports, women are still oppressed and children abused, and poverty and hunger is so extreme that about half of the children in Bangladesh are underweight and malnourished.
The benefit continues, The Concert for Bangladesh is still a live event. The George Harrison Fund for UNICEF, a collaboration between the Harrison family and the U.S. Fund for UNICEF continues to support UNICEF programs in Bangladesh "while expanding its influence to include other countries where children are in need." Sales of the live album and DVD release of the film continue to benefit the fund.
You can visit the site for the George Harrison Fund for UNICEF here, and the Concert for Bangladesh site where you can make a donation here.
The money we raised was secondary. The main thing was, we spread the word and helped get the war ended … What we did show was that musicians and people are more humane than politicians.
George Harrison, 1992
I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps
I don't know why nobody told you
How to unfold your love . . .
