Our vintage wooden doors look fab set up as a bacdrop for your vintage style wedding or event. There are many ways to use them including as a ceremony backdrop hung with jam jars full of flowers, or one either side of the aisle as a feature, or as a guest seating chart, a DIY photo booth backdrop or to hang favourite family photographs. There are endless fun possibilities!
We are super excited to see our gorgeous 1930's vintage lounge Matilda go out for hire to her very first wedding this weekend! She looks stunning set up in a reception area, photo booth area, vintage lounge area or at a garden party. Team her with our lovely vintage trunk set up as a coffee table, our free standing wooden fireplace surround and perhaps our velvet armchair Antoinette.
A welcome table is the first thing the guests will see upon their arrival so whatever you decide on, it will set the scene. You may want to display ceremony programmes so use the set up for this purpose, or you may just want to prop a welcome sign or blackboard next to the table to introduce your wedding or birthday event. I also love a dresser set up with old black and white family photographs of the bride and groom. I think this is a great welcome display for a wedding. Another option is to have a drinks stand to welcome guests. A fabulous vintage dresser set with coupes or crystal wine glasses and drinks served in dispensers or vintage jugs looks gorgeous and is a very warm welcome for your guests.
Whatever option you go with, here are just a couple ideas below. There are countlesss possibilities…take a look at our lovely vintage furniture pieces under "dressers and tables"and also our "Welcome/entrance table" ideas on Pinterest!
I just adore blackboards. They take me back to my childhood days when they were used in school. I always remember feeling like a real grown up if the teacher allowed me to write something on it.
In recent years white boards took over but they just don't have the same charm as a blackboard. Thank goodness blackboards have made a comeback and are now used in cafes, shops, florists and even at the dentist! They look cute and quirky and almost anything can be made into a blackboard using a bit of blackboard paint…picture frames can be converted, old cupboard doors, window frames…the list goes on! Here are just a select few of ours for hire.
You can now hire our vintage dressing up and photo props for your next event. Check out more details under our inventory-packages tab!
These vintage props are great entertainment for your guests and create truly memorable photographs of your special event. Use them for your wedding, birthday or baby shower. They are great fun for children and adults alike.
When planning the decor for your wedding ceremony there are many ideas to choose from and that can be exhausting and that can lead to a decreased appetite, which is why I always carry with me some kratom pills, they won't only help me by giving more energy but also with my appetite.You can by kratom capsules at Kratom-Masters, and get kratom sent to your house with no problem. I love a vintage wedding as you can be as imaginative as you want to be! A wedding has so much more meaning if you can add a few little homemade touches to it that represent you and your partner.
Today I am focusing on backdrops as many wedding ceremonies are taking place outdoors which leave a bride and groom with a blank canvas when it comes to decorating this area. This can be a little overwhelming, and maybe it's a good time to start taking kratom; however there are many ways to create backdrops with a touch of vintage charm. I have put together some ideas to help you.
- Use vintage wooden doors or shutters to create a backdrop. You can use two or three doors hinged together and have them freestanding behind the celebrant. Drape flowers over them or hang family pictures off pegs from hessian string.
- A vintage dresser looks gorgeous set up with flowers displayed in teapots, vintage bottles or crystal vases. Another great idea is to display several different picture frames along the shelves with different photographs of the bride and groom.
- Something a little different is to use an old wooden freestanding fireplace as a backdrop. Keep it simple by displaying fresh flowers and gorgeous candle holders.
- If you have a few trees or a gazebo you can use at your ceremony, another option is to hang old window frames. They look fabulous outdoors!
- Make a curtain backdrop out of several strips of ribbon, material and lace. This creates a very whimsical and romantic look and you can chose fabric to compliment your colour theme.
With a garden ceremony all of these ideas will look fabulous. These personal touches really are worth all of the effort for your special day as you will have wonderful memories to look back on, not to mention beautiful photographs.I justo hope you don't forget to carry some Kratom capsules at all times to help you get through the day.
Happy wedding planning!
I always knew since my 30's that my wedding day would be small and intimate with personal and creative touches. I had fallen in love with anything vintage since my husband Graeme and I bought our old colonial style house in 2010 and a vintage inspired wedding seemed the obvious choice for both of us after Graeme proposed in April 2011.
Graeme and I wanted a relaxed, backyard wedding so it was important for us to find the right venue. We also wanted to keep the wedding guest list to fewer than 40 people which made it far more intimate for us. Unfortunately the nearest relative who owns a farm with heaps of backyard we could use was in New Zealandso that option was out of the window! It was also important that the chosen venue would let us decorate it as we wanted. Finding a lot of commercial venues around Sydney and NSW were reluctant to let us do this; we had to think outside the box. Then it dawned on us to speak to a friend of ours who runs Willow Vale Mill in Laggan (about 40km West of Goulbourn). Willow Vale Mill is a restaurant and B&B set in acres of countryside with a very rustic, backyard feel. Imagine old world Tuscany meets NSW bush and you are on the right track! The owner Graham Linney was delighted to host our wedding and we knew he would do a fantastic job with the food as we had sampled his amazing cooking many times before. The whole process was very relaxed and as we were going for seasonal produce, we didn't have to worry about the menu until a week before. Willow Vale Mill was perfect for our vintage wedding.
With the venue organised, next on the list were dresses for me and my gorgeous bridesmaids. I didn't actually buy a vintage wedding dress but found a beautiful lace one that went perfectly with the vintage theme. I was lucky that I found the perfect one fairly quickly in a bride shop up the road to my house. I then had to find three bridesmaids dresses for my sister and two teenage stepdaughters. I didn't want them to wear matching dresses as I wanted different styles and colours. I wanted apricot and cream David Austen roses for the décor so ended up buying my sister a gorgeous long dress in apricot which matched perfectly. I then had a longer search on my hands to buy my stepdaughters a dress in a green colour to match the vintage paper I had used when making my handmade invitations. We ended up buying two lovely short green dresses that were a close match. They looked gorgeous next to my sisters apricot dress and although they were a different colour, style and length, they were similar with straps crossing at the back. With the important dress search over, I was ready to move onto the décor.
I love any opportunity to get creative and any opportunity to add to my vintage collection, so I found this part of the planning process the most fun! I knew I wanted a lolly buffet and a lemonade station so it was just a matter of sourcing the right things to set this up. I spent several weeks collecting jam jars for the lemonade station and they looked adorable teamed with vintage stripy straws. I already had a gorgeous old set of vintage weighing scales which I knew would look fabulous with the lolly buffet so I just needed the apothecary jars and scoops to complete the look. I also made my own bunting which looked cute hanging above the lolly buffet.
I did a lot of research looking at websites such as Style Me Pretty and Green Wedding Shoes for inspiration for the rest of my décor. I wanted a typewriter and scrabble letters on our guest book table and I also decided on a vintage photo booth for memorable photos. I used moustaches, lips, glasses and bow ties made from card on long rods for the photo props and found a gorgeous old vintage photo frame which looked great set up with a mirror and stand and other photo props. We also had a vintage suitcase set up for cards ad presents. In order to entertain the guests whilst my husband and I had photographs, we set up a game of Boules which seemed to be popular! Hanging above the lemonade station were mixed vintage frames hanging from ribbons next to a chandelier wrapped in flowers hanging from an olive tree. I finished the look with hundreds of fairy lights which wrapped around the trees out the front, the downstairs of the mill and the second floor of the mill where we were having our evening wedding meal. Unfortunately the temperature gets a little cold in March so we had to eat inside, but we took advantage of the huge roaring log fire upstairs and went for a candlelight dinner which created a gorgeous atmosphere.
For the evening meal itself I wanted an eclectic feel with the table setting so I used a mixture of assorted vintage china plates in different patterns and colours (some hired as I didn't have enough time to build up my own collection before the wedding!). I teamed them with mixed silver plated cutlery and crystal wine glasses. To finish the table setting I put long white candles in a mixture of glass, crystal and silver candle holders.
The table centrepieces were very important to me as I really wanted something vintage that looked simple yet stunning. I decided on a vintage teacup and saucer for each table with David Austen roses and Baby's Breath inside each one. I then draped a string of faux pearls across each teacup which gave them a touch of vintage glamour! To raise the teacups off the table I sat each one on a little lace doily on a stack of vintage books and named each table after a type of tea. Using the typewriter I painstakingly typed out each table name and every guests name on a coffee stained tag and then tied the table name tag to the teacup with hessian string and the guests name tag was tied around the white napkin. The effort of vintage crockery, cutlery, glasses, candles and teacups looked absolutely stunning. I also displayed David Austen roses as well as Lilac's in an assortment of crystal vases and silver teapots around the mill. For the seating chart I used an old glass door off a vintage dresser.
Music also played an important part on the day for us and we were recommended to book a trio of classical musicians for the ceremony and a live jazz band called Ella's Holidayfor the evening entertainment. Both turned out to be wonderful!
I was delighted with our vintage wedding and couldn't stop smiling all day! It felt like a memorable day that was truly "us" and we were overjoyed to have our families and close friends there to share it with us. Our wonderful and talented photographer Sally Goodall captured our wedding exactly as it was. You can see plenty of pictures in Teacups and Roses photo gallery on our website. After months of rain we were also blessed with the weather with perfect blue sky and sunshine. I would not have changed a thing about our special day.

Old Browsers
If the main body of this page has rounded corners and subtle drop-shadow effects with a stylish Diavlo font face instead of Arial / Helvetica / sans-serif, chances are you are already using a modern browser. If you see square borders and a default sans-serif font, then you should be aware your browser doesn't support the latest Web standards making the life of Web designers rather difficult. This site looks great on Android phones and tablets, iPhones and iPads, but will look rather dated in Internet Explorer 6, 7 and 8.
Modern browsers such as recent versions of Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera and Microsoft's upcoming Internet Explorer 9 support CSS 3 meaning effects that previously required a complex maze of background graphics and endless hours of testing of different variants of major browsers can now be achieved with a few lines of code.
Still using Internet Explorer 6?
Here are just some of the reasons you might want to upgrade:
- It does not support W3C standards.
- It is not compatible with CSS3 and only partially supports CSS2.
- It has a very low score in Acid 3 test.
- It is insecure and slow.
- Several movements against this browser have sprung up: IE Death March, Dear IE6, Stop IE6.
- Google has officially stopped supporting it in its Web applications.
- A funeral has been celebrated
- Microsoft has discontinued support, focussing on its next generation IE9
- The browser lives on in intranets reliant on dated and inherently insecure Active-X technology and unpatched versions of Windows XP. IE7 was released in early 2006.

It's not been up to 24 hours since my friends left and I'm already starving 😭
They both love cooking, I didn't have to think of cooking for the past 1 week or thereabout. But now I'm back to my hungry life. I really envy people who love cooking. Like how? I hate cooking, okay maybe hate is a bit strong. I do not like cooking. It's so stressful for me. The only time I enjoy cooking is when I have absolutely nothing doing. After ranting here I'll just go to my kitchen and make some jollof rice before I collapse.
Yours sincerely,
Hungry Bimbola

But now, on the run with mother and child, Miles must figure out what happened to Paige's ex-husband…and why young Abby won't say a word. Her usually talkative child's silence has Paige worried. Is it possible she witnessed something while video chatting with her dad? If only they can convince the little girl to talk, then they might just break the case wide-open…and stop the killer who's stalking them at every turn.

All power within the government of the People's Republic of China is divided among three bodies: the Chinese Communist Party, State Council, and the People's Liberation Army. In recent years China has been consolidating it's state-owned assets and inviting private investors to invest (often family members of high ranking government officials), however in most cases the government retains control and majority ownership. We have listed State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) simply as subsidiaries of China's government, although in reality company ownership is often more complex.

If you need to treat your loved one to a well deserved romantic break any time of the year or you're bereft of inspiration this Valentine's Day and the weight of doing something terribly romantic is weighing heavily on your shoulders, fear not! We have the answer…
Take your pick from our top 6 romantic days out in Yorkshire and treat your loved one to a truly special day, whatever the time of year…
What could be more romantic? Standing on the platform, hand in hand, eagerly awaiting the arrival of your steam locomotive. And once on board why not settle down to crisp white linen, a glass of champagne and look forward to a journey though the stunning North York Moors.
The steam trains of the NYMR run from Pickering to Grosmont and vice versa throughout the year. You can book lunch, dinner or afternoon tea, depending on the date and services running at that time. And while you're there, Pickering is a charming Yorkshire market town with lots of lovely cafés, inns and restaurants to squirrel yourself away…
Where to stay: North York Moors Holiday Cottages
Helmsley is an idyllic spot to whisk your loved one away. Enjoy a wander around the beautiful ruins of Rievaulx Abbey, indulge in treatment for two at The Verbena Spa, lunch at the Black Swan Tearooms and then head to the Star Inn at Harome for dinner. I promise you your special someone will love you forever for this.
The Spa at Raithwaite Hall near Whitby is one of Yorkshire's most prestigious spas. Set on a hillside sweeping down to the bay at Sandsend, it's a perfect location for a romantic break. Indulge in one of the couples' treatments before a chill out by the pool. For lunch wander down into Sandsend to the very sweet Woodlands Restaurant. Then top it all off with a jaunt along the beach.
Where to stay: Luxury Cottages on the Yorkshire Coast
Have you been to Whitby on the Yorkshire Coast lately? In recent years Whitby has seen something of a renaissance. Of course it still has its traditional seaside charm – old cobbled streets and quirky independent shops, but tucked alongside you'll also find some excellent seafood restaurants like Greens of Whitby and several plush new bars. So settle down with a bottle of bubbly and a dozen oysters for the afternoon - romance guaranteed!

There is something synonymous about chocolate and romance. Of course you could always buy a box from the local supermarket, but why not go one step further and treat your Valentine to some delicious chocolate straight from the source – a chocolate afternoon tea at York Cocoa House. And once you are suitably filled up with delicious chocolate, venture out into romantic York and spend an evening enjoying this wonderful city. If you're still hungry, then dinner at The Star Inn the City is highly recommended…

"If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be; and if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the universe would turn to a mighty stranger." Emily Bronte, Wuthering Heights
A classic tale of passionate, intense love. Emily Bronte's Heathcliff and Catherine played out their romance on the striking moors above Ilkley. Visit the Bronte Parsonage in Haworth to see some of the Bronte sister's original manuscripts. Afterwards explore the landscape that inspired such romantic classics. Take a wander up to the Cow and Calf rocks and enjoy the view of pretty Victorian spa town Ilkley far below you. For dinner, wander down to the Michelin-starred Box Tree in Ilkley for an indulgent end to the day.

RECaP and WildCRU
For the past several years WildCRU has fostered a vibrant collaboration with Professor Robert (Bob) Montgomery of Michigan State University. There Bob directs the RECaP Laboratory which conducts Research on the Ecology of Carnivores and their Prey. The questions assessed in RECaP are multidisciplinary, multifaceted, and take place in locales across the world. Increasingly however, the work of RECaP has focused on East Africa. Bob frames his work by the pursuit of the two Grand Challenges that face wildlife conservation in East Africa in the 21st century; 1) To develop innovative solutions to halt the precipitous decline of wildlife and 2) to train students from underrepresented backgrounds so that the future of wildlife conservation can be more diverse. Two of Bob's current students are doing just that.
Arthur Muneza
While Rwandan-born, Arthur spent his formative years in Nairobi, Kenya where, among other things, he fostered a powerful passion for wildlife. Recruited to Michigan State University as a MasterCard Foundation Scholar Arthur has just completed his MSc degree conducting a study of an emerging disease that is afflicting giraffe populations throughout Africa.
There is little doubt that giraffes (Giraffa carmelopardalis), the world's tallest mammal, are at risk due to factors. With less than 80,000 giraffes remaining in Africa it is of critical importance to assess the gravity of these factors. In the last two decades, a skin disease has emerged which could imperil giraffe populations. The disease, commonly referred to as Giraffe Skin Disease (GSD), was first described in Uganda in 1995 and manifests as wrinkled skin and skin nodules with raised hair, which later develop into chronic and severe scabs, lesions and encrustations with dry or oozing blood. These brownish-grey lesions have been observed on the neck, shoulder and upper body on Rothschild giraffes in Uganda and on the limbs of Masai giraffes in Tanzania. The trouble is, almost nothing is known of this disease. Arthur's research, in collaboration with WildCRU, provided the very first assessment of the prevalence, severity, and regional variation in GSD throughout Africa.
Arthur's research resulted in the first ever comprehensive and current database of GSD incidences across Africa. Giraffe Skin Disease has been observed in 13 protected areas across 7 countries in Africa and in 11 zoos distributed across 6 countries. These statistics demonstrate that GSD is more widespread than initially thought. For instance, until this study it was commonly believed that GSD was a wild disease alone. Not only does GSD afflict populations of wild-living giraffes, where between 2% – 80% of observed giraffes have been found to be affected, but captive giraffes also suffer from the disease. This suggests that a captive to wild comparison of GSD is warranted.
Ruaha National Park in Tanzania has the highest prevalence of GSD at 80% of observed giraffes. It is also in this very park where lion specialize on preying on young and adult giraffes. Examining the effect of GSD on giraffe-lion interactions in Tanzania is an area that warrants further investigation. In as much as this research was comprehensive, there are some details that are still unclear, including the causative agent, the pathology and epidemiology of the disease, and the effect of GSD on the vital rates of giraffes. The findings of this research have been published in Biological Conservation, in a manuscript titled "Regional Variation of the manifestation, prevalence and severity of giraffe skin disease: A review of an emerging disease in wild and captive giraffe populations". The paper can be accessed online on: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0006320716301501
Arthur will be continuing his research on giraffes and their conservation as a Ph.D. student at MSU and a Leiden Conservation Foundation Graduate Research Fellow within RECaP.
Tutilo Mudumba
Tutilo Mudumba is a human-lion conflict expert from Uganda and a WildCRU alumnus. In 2011, Tutilo joined WildCRU's Panther program at the Recanati-Kaplan Centre to pursue a postgraduate diploma course at the University of Oxford. He credits that experience as the source of the inspiration that drives him to become a leading scientist for wildlife conservation in Uganda.
Now working as a Ph.D. student in RECaP and closely linked to WildCRU, Tutilo is seeking to understand the effect of various sources of anthropogenic disturbance on the lion population of Murchison Falls National Park, Uganda. Tutilo has recently received two highly prestigious awards to fund his research. He is the recipient of Wildlife Conservation Network's Pat J. Miller Graduate Research Fellowship and the World Wildlife Fund's Russel E. Train Education for Nature Aspiring Faculty for Conservation Fellowship. This impressive package of support provides Tutilo with full funding over the next three years to complete his Ph.D.
Tutilo's ambition is to be an agent of change in Africa and a leader capable of informing and developing policies that protect wildlife and improve the availability of- and access to- opportunities for African people and train the next generation of conservation leaders. With continued success, comparable to that which he has experienced thus far, there is no question that he will achieve these goals.

We are lucky to have a fantastic team of volunteers in our Livinggreen Centre and without them we wouldn't be able to keep the exhibition open every day or answer the many questions from our visitors. Recently, however, some of our volunteers have been inspired to recycle creatively and have introduced some new additions to our exhibition.
Julie took an unused pallet from Morden Hall Park and made this beautiful chair. As comfortable to sit on as it is lovely, it really does highlight how easy it can be to transform something unwanted into a lovely piece of furniture.
One of the most popular parts of our exhibition is the wood burning stove, and visitors love having the opportunity to sit by the fire in our recycled cable drum rocking chairs. Adding an extra cosiness to the chairs are some gorgeous knitted rugs, courtesy of our volunteer Eileen. If you're a knitter, you'll know that you end up with bits of leftover yarn and this is a fantastic way of making use of all that wool.
We challenge our readers to get creative with their recycling - we look forward to seeing what you can come up with!

When mortgage rates are low, you can cut your monthly house payment by refinancing into a better interest rate.
If you can shave at least one-half of 1 percentage point off your current mortgage rate, it can be worth your while to trade in your existing home loan for a new one.
Here's how to get the best refinance rate:
- Polish your credit.
- Consider a shorter loan term.
- Shop local, then widen your net.
- Know when to pounce.
1. Polish your credit
Make sure you're paying your bills on time — especially your mortgage — in the months before you apply for your refi loan, so you'll have the strongest possible credit score. The better your score, the lower your interest rate.
Don't open or close any other credit accounts during this time, because that could lower your credit score.
Get your free annual credit reports from the three major credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian and TransUnion) to be certain there are no errors or old debts on your credit record that don't belong there. Those can weigh down your credit score. Bankrate offers a free credit report and credit score as well.
Paying off bigger chunks of credit card or other debt will help boost your score.
Lenders typically prefer that your total debt add up to less than 43 percent of your annual income. If you can reduce that debt-to-income ratio, you can land a lower interest rate.
2. Consider a shorter loan term
If you have a 30-year mortgage that you've had for several years and refinance into another 30-year loan, you'll drag out your mortgage debt and interest rate payments over a longer period — unless you sell the house before the end of your term.
You could choose a shorter-term refinance, such as a 15- or 20-year mortgage, and enjoy a lower interest rate.
Throughout 2018, rates on 15-year fixed-rate mortgages have been about 60 basis points (0.6 of 1 percentage point) lower than rates on 30-year fixed-rate loans, according to Bankrate's weekly survey.
But note that a shorter-term loan will come with a higher monthly payment.
You also might consider refinancing a fixed-rate loan into an adjustable-rate mortgage, or ARM. Those tend to come with lower interest rates, at least during the initial years before the rate starts "adjusting."
However, if you think you may be staying in the home for the long haul, an ARM likely isn't the right choice, especially in the current rising interest rate environment.
3. Shop local, then widen your net
Gather rate quotes, starting with the lender holding your current mortgage. That financial institution has an interest in keeping your business, so it might offer you an attractive refi rate.
Next, search lenders in your area, including smaller banks and credit unions. Sometimes, a lender that's trying to expand in your market will offer a good deal on your rate, to win you over as a customer.
Expand your comparison-shopping to the largest lenders, plus online lenders.
Also, check lenders specializing in the type of property you own. Some lenders specialize in high-rise condos or beach communities and might offer you a better rate because they are more comfortable with your property.
Ask lenders about fees and closing costs, so you can determine whether your refi will really save you money.
"If all you ask is 'What's your rate?' then chances are the mortgage banker will help you with one situation but may not get what's best for you," says Bill Banfield, an executive vice president at Quicken Loans.
4. Know when to pounce
Mortgage rates can fluctuate, so you have to get the timing right and know when to lock.
Rates on 30-year mortgages tend to follow the yield on the 10-year Treasury bond and are influenced by actions taken by the Federal Reserve to raise — or lower — rates. Work with a loan officer who understands how rates are behaving and can help you pounce after a news event has pushed rates down.
"When finding a lender, the three things most important things are: having trust, a commitment to service and communication," says Kerry Wirth, chief operating officer of Waterstone Mortgage.
It appears the Fed is getting ready for more rate hikes, so you may want to make your move quickly — to beat the increase.

A headache is pain or discomfort in the head or face. Headaches vary greatly in terms of the location and intensity of the pain, and how often the headaches occur. The brain tissue doesn't have pain-sensitive nerve fibers and doesn't feel pain. But, other parts of the head can be responsible for a headache including:
Different types of headaches include:
In this type of headache, symptoms other than pain occur as part of the headache. Nausea and vomiting, lightheadedness, sensitivity to light (photophobia), and other visual symptoms typically occur with migraines. Migraines also have distinct phases. Not all people have each phase, however. The phases of a migraine headache may include:
Tension headaches are the most common type of headache. Stress and tight muscles are often factors in tension-type headaches. These are common symptoms of a tension-type headache:
Cluster headaches usually occur in a series that may last weeks or months.
These are the most common symptoms of a cluster headache:
Headaches are classified as primary or secondary.
Headache symptoms depend on the type of headache. The frequency of headaches and the intensity of the symptoms may vary, too. Typical headache symptoms include:
Tension type headaches typically do not cause nausea, vomiting, or sensitivity to light (photophobia).
The symptoms of a headache may look like other conditions or medical problems. Always see your healthcare provider for a diagnosis.
Your doctor will want to do a comprehensive medical evaluation and diagnostic testing. He or she will also ask about your medical history, and do physical exam and certain tests.
Questions commonly asked during the exam may include:
If your doctor suspects migraine or tension-type headaches and the neurological exam is normal, no further testing may be needed. However, if it is not a primary type headache, then other tests may be done to find the cause.
Tests used to find the cause of a headache may include:
Your healthcare provider will figure out the best treatment based on:
The goal of treatment is to stop headaches from occurring. Effective headache management depends on finding what type of headache you have and may include:
Migraine and cluster headaches may need specific medicine management including:
Some headaches may need immediate medical attention including hospitalization for observation, diagnostic testing, or even surgery. Treatment is individualized depending on the underlying condition causing the headache. Full recovery depends on the type of headache and other medical problems that may be present.
When headache triggers are known, avoiding the triggers can prevent a headache. Reducing stress can minimize or prevent headaches caused by stress. Migraine and cluster headaches may be prevented by taking a daily preventive medicines.
Most headaches can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. However, call your healthcare provider right away if a severe headache is accompanied by:
Symptoms that may suggest a more serious headache include:
Before you agree to the test or the procedure make sure you know:

Inside & Out
Every now and then we get lucky, in the sense that we come across a test car that we really like to drive and would love to keep. The new Citroen C5 is a premium executive sedan that we liked very much and would love to keep. The new Citroen C5 was released last year but has only just reached Malaysian shores. From a first glance and impression, it is unmistakably French, through and through.
The Citroen C5 faces the same task that its predecessors had failed to live up to; to successfully face-off and compete with the clear favourites in the premium executive segment such as the Toyota Camry and the Honda Accord, as well as to deal with the contenders on the fringes, such as the Mazda 6 and the Volvo S40, just to name a few. In terms of styling, the Citroen C5 is like a 'breath of fresh air', as it has somewhat broken away from the trend of 'Euro-styling' and made a bold design statement of its own, it is not too loud or outrageous to be an embarrassment, in fact, it could turn out to be a best-seller for Citroen and quite possibly the French automaker's next top model.
Citroen has been recognized in the automotive industry for its reputation for innovation and individuality, which is blatantly obvious with the new C5 Exclusive sedan. Every single body part and panel has been beautifully sculpted and even the rear windshield, in the form of a concave rear screen, is an eye-catching exterior feature to those with sharp eyes who do take notice, and the uniquely designed rear screen results in the car having one of the most unique types of C-pillar in its class. The overall visual aesthetic stance of the C5 is both a stunning and an attention grabber. The beautiful, long and curvaceous lines disguise the true dimensions of the C5 rather well, as it is in fact quite a big, long car.
The C5 is a long car, it is in fact one of the longest in its class, and ends in a rather squared-off rear, where a further example of Citroen quirkiness can be seen in the concave rear windscreen and sloping boot lid. The shape of the screen has two benefits; it seems to clear water better than conventionally shaped windscreens and it allows a larger loading entry to the 439-litre boot, the capacity of which can be increased by folding the rear seats flat.
The quality of the interior fittings is impressive. The attention to detail taken by the C5's designers is a clear indication that the design team wanted the interior to be just as impressive as the exterior, providing for a totally satisfying package. The design, levels of quality and comfort inculcated into the interior shows that a lot of thought had gone into the design and manufacture of the interior, as was invested on the exterior.
Equipment levels on this range topping model are more than generous with features such as heated, massaging leather seat for the driver, and a heated leather seat for the front passenger, although in Malaysian weather heated seats are not at all necessary because it is already hot and humid as it is. Citroen's revolutionary multi-function steering wheel is also a joy to hold, grasp and handle. From a driver's perspective, it seems as though control of any part of the car is just a mere press of a button away.
There are some thoughtful touches that add to the C5's cabin comfort and appeal, such as the door-pocket illumination that activates when a hand reaches in. The instrument cluster is a delightful distraction as it contains three dials with aircraft-style, annular needles, which run around the outside of a central information screen. It looks impressive and classy, especially at night.
The ride is super smooth and quiet thanks to Citroen's soundproofing efforts, which include an acoustic windscreen, triple door seals and an improved roof lining, amongst other things, making the cabin well insulated, quiet and free of intrusive noises from the outside environment, making it one of the most relaxing cabins in the executive sedan segment.
Engine & Transmission
Citroen's 2.0-litre four-cylinder normally-aspirated petrol powerplant is smooth and refined, it is quiet and even when throttled, is hardly audible. It powers the C5 from standstill to motion with 143bhp, together with 200Nm of torque at 4,000rpm. Citroen claims a 0-100 timing of ten seconds but the C5 does not at all feel quick or fast, though it is a pleasure to drive because of how comfortable and classy the cabin is and feels.
The C5's 2.0-Litre powerplant is mated to a 4-speed, auto-adaptive gearbox with sequential shift, and to be put simply though how uninspiring the drive may be because of a lack of performance, the C5 moves its occupants classily in both comfort and style, and it is in this context that the C5 truly impresses.
Ultimate performance may be blunted by the C5's 1,448kg kerb weight, but it remains refinely smooth and muscular and the slick shifting four-speed auto-adaptive gearbox with sequential shift is appropriately rangy to aid in cruising economy, ideal for long distance travel.
Ride & Handling
Suspension technology and innovation has always been Citroen's pillar of strength or so to say, and its benchmark, and the C5 remains true to this proud heritage and reputation with its 'Hydractive 3+' suspension featuring adjustable springs, damping and ride height. The 'switchable' suspension does a good job of meeting different driving needs and surroundings with the softer mode proving to be supple and relaxing when driving around town, and the sports mode providing a firmer and stiffer ride for a more spirited drive when on challenging and engaging roads.
The C5's handling is acceptable when traversing through the city on urban roads, though on B-roads handling prowess can be found to be lacking due to a lack of steering feedback. However, one of the C5's forte's is that it is a fine, stylishly classy comfortable cruiser, and it nestles occupants in its cabin quite well even on rough and uneven road surfaces, compared to some of the more capable and popular models in its class.
Equipment, Economy & Value for Money
The C5 Exclusive's most likely added popularity will be because of its added comfort features and electronic gizmos, such as automatic lights and wipers, folding door mirrors, electrochromatic rear-view mirror along with front fog lights, with parking sensors all round that are a welcome option especially when parking in tight and narrow spots. The C5 Exclusive takes things a step further but it still does not have satellite-navigation system as standard, which is odd considering the target market it is earmarked for.
Powered door mirrors are standard, as is air-conditioning with pollen filter, front and rear electric windows, and cruise control with speed limiter. This latter item is vital because the C5 has the ability to alter one's speed perception, making it very easy for one to go faster than one really should.
Where lighting is concerned, the C5 Exclusive lights the road ahead with wrap-around Xenon, dual-functional and directional headlights along with adaptive cornering lights for added safety at night.
Citroen's C5 is an enticing package to consider for those who are in the market for a uniquely classy, stylish, comfortable, luxurious, executive sedan. The C5 offers fine value for money especially for the amount of equipment that it has. However it remains to be seen if this latest C5 can change history and hold its value, as French executives have a tendency to depreciate heavily even during the best of times.
Standard safety systems include ABS with EBD, ESP and traction control, seven airbags, including one for the driver's knees and three ISOFIX anchor points for the outer rear seats and the front passenger seat.
The Citroen C5 Exclusive sedan is a stylishly classy, diverse yet unique option worth considering even when compared to other more popular models in the premium executive segment, such as the Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, Volvo S40, and Mazda 6 as examples. The Citroen C5 has serious potential and promise to succeed in establishing itself as an enticing model in this segment where its predecessors have withered away into obscurity. Those with a desire to stand out from the crowd, will have a liking for the Citroen C5 as its commanding presence and endless list of features and accessories will most definitely make it stand out from the rest of the crowd.
Resale value might be on the down side and the price is rather steep, about RM200k for this 2.0-Litre Exclusive model. However, questions still loom concerning reliability as its predecessors were known to be quite costly to maintain over time and the amount of repairs was one of the reasons for the car's poor resale value. Whether this would affect the latest C5 remains for time to tell. The money spent on this latest C5 offering from Citroen would be money well spent as it has a lot to offer in terms of comfort, style and technology.
Overall, the new 2009 Citroen C5 is a beautiful French saloon that is one of the most well-equipped models in its segment. It has striking good looks and provides for a comfortable, luxurious ride. This car is highly recommended for those who enjoy the serenity of cruising who prefer not to engage in sporty drives and would not rather push their cars to the limit on the road. Daring to be different? Then get a Citroen C5 Exclusive. We would too if our coffers matched our opinion and taste.

Don't forget to take a look at Inferno: Alliance Standalone, the other main INF mod on ModDB. While INF SCP tries to tell what happened after the events of FreeSpace 2, INFASA goes back and describes what happened in Sol after FreeSpace 1.
News by The Dagger as posted on Hard-Light Productions
Since we haven't released Inferno as planned, we decided to at least give something to the community:
Download the Inferno Vasudan Pack from Mediafire or ModDB
Included in the pack are three new upgraded models: the GVB Petbe, the GVF Ennead and the GVF Mihos.
Also included, the two recently released GVB Hathor and GVB Setep.
All models include a retail-compatible table.
New models:
The Petbe is strange even by Vasudan standards. A spiny hull design makes the Petbe rather difficult to hit from its virtually non-existent flanks, and its high speed contributes to its effectiveness in knocking out light ships. The ideal delivery vehicle for torpedoes, Petbes are often used to soften up bigger targets by destroying turrets and weapons systems before the larger bombers come in to finish the job.
Model by BrotherBryon. Textures by Rampage.
Often considered as the fastest ship ever built, the Ennead is essentially an afterburner with guns. Very poorly shielded, this refined interceptor is useless in most dogfights. However, she excels as a scout and can fill anti-bomber rolls, as her sleek profile and her state-of-the-art afterburner velocity is completely unmatched by conventional strikecraft.
Model by BrotherBryon. Textures by Rampage.
The Mihos is the universal light fighter of the GTVA, in use by both Terrans and Vasudans. Although the Terran version cannot carry Vasudan armaments, and vice versa, the two classes are almost indistinguishable in performance terms. Her two primary banks can be fitted with both energy and ballistic weapons, and her single secondary bank is compatible with all standard missile types. In flight the Mihos assumes the primary dogfighting role, outperforming most fightercraft with its high agility.
Model by Rampage and The Dagger. Textures by The Dagger.
Also included:
The GVB Hathor was conceived to engage Shivan capital ships and live to tell the tale. As a worthy successor of the GVB Sekhmet, this bomber carries a higher bomb capacity, upgraded shields, ECM defence systems and a subspace motivator designed for precission jumps. In the event of a Shivan Incursion, Hathors are expected to fend off the first waves of capital ships while system-wide evacuation and node suppression contingencies are put in place. Despite its high production costs, Hathor bombers have been incorporated into most Vasudan battlegroups en masse, reflecting the pivotal role the Vasudan Admiralty as assigned them in the event of a new Shivan Incursion.
Model and textures by The Dagger.
The huge Setep is the largest fightercraft in Vasudan service. Capable of carrying the formidable Djinn subspace strike torpedo, a wing of Seteps is a terrible enemy for a large fleet or superdestroyer to face. Because of this standoff capability, even fighter wings are of limited use against them. Up close and personal, the Setep can still launch a spread of Apophis bombs to kill off destroyers and corvettes.
Model by MarkN and The Dagger. Textures by The Dagger.
On July 16th, 2003, Inferno R1 was released. Woomeister posted on our Eyecandy thread on Hard Light Productions a few pics showing off the main differences...
Our new modeller, Dagger, worked on the iconic GVB Setep Vasudan superbomber and also posted on HLP a link to a 3D view of the model. Take a look!

Really nice models! :)
And great to see something is going on in the Freespace universe.
Nice to see the Bastion finally getting a rework.
Instead of commenting on every single image I will just post here and say the ne ship renders look very promising. I wish you much luck and success!
+1 Vote for IOTY! Good Luck!
All Inferno mods are my all time favourites. Can't wait to see & play the new stuff! Thank you so much guys!
Oh shi-
A release date? Yes please!
Will "Slaying the Nemesis" mission be altered to be significantly easier? I've played that through almost 100 times now and still haven't progressed. Apart from that minor problem, the previous Inferno was sweet.
Is it just me or does the EAB Lonchos bare a striking similar appearence to the Taiidani Bomber from homeworld
I'm not familiar with the Homeworld continuity, but the team member who designed te Lonchos, Rampage, oftentimes claimed his designs are based on many HW assets, so I wouldn't be surprised.
