The volume of industry exports has increased over the five years through 2012-13
Melbourne, Australia (PRWEB) September 17, 2012
The Bauxite Mining industry is expected to generate revenue of $2.02 billion in 2012-13, compared with $1.96 billion in 2007-08, yielding growth of 0.6% per year. According to IBISWorld industry analyst M. Williams, "revenue is expected to grow by just 0.2% in 2012-13, as weaker prices largely offset higher levels of output". Australia is the largest producer of bauxite worldwide, accounting for about 30% of global output. Its bauxite production is expected to be about 76 million tonnes in 2012-13, compared with 63.5 million tonnes in 2007-08.
Most bauxite mined in Australia is processed into alumina locally, but about 9.4 million tonnes, valued at about $249.4 million, is expected to be exported in 2012-13. Imports of bauxite are negligible. The volume of Bauxite Mining industry exports has increased over the five years through 2012-13, but lower US dollar prices for bauxite, combined with a stronger Australian dollar, have kept export values fairly flat. Williams adds "imports of bauxite remain". There are six establishments and five enterprises involved in the industry, although just three firms (Rio Tinto, Alcoa and BHP Billiton) account for the great bulk of production.
Bauxite Mining industry performance is expected to make moderate gains during the next five years, as production increases in response to recovering global growth and rising aluminium output. Industry revenue is expected to increase over the next five years. Output growth assumes that Rio Tinto proceeds with its South of Embley mine (near Weipa, QLD).

Pregnancy Related Pelvic Girdle Pain
This article is by Eglantine Hallo, the osteopath in Islington at the Angel Osteopathic Clinic. Eglantine has a keen intertest in seeing mothers and babies and mum's to be, and the feedback from the mums is that Eglantine really gets to grips with the problem and works tierlessly to find a solution.
What is Pregnancy Related Pelvic Girdle Pain (PGP)?
- Pregnancy-related pain, instability and dysfunction of the lumbo-sacral region, sacro-iliac joints (SIJs) and symphisis pubis joint (SPJ).
- It may have a mechanical origin and be related to a level of instability of the pelvic joints
It was previously described as symphisis pubis dysfunction SPD
Pain distribution can present differently in each individual:
Lower back
Symphisis pubis joint
Sacroiliac joints
Anterior and posterior thigh
Hip region
Pelvic floor
Common Signs and Symptoms
- Difficulty walking (waddling gait) with a diminished endurance for standing, walking or sitting.
- Pain on weight bearing on one leg (climbing stairs, dressing)
- Pain and/or difficulty in straddle movements (getting in and out of bath and/or car, turning in bed)
- Clicking or grinding in pelvic area (may be audible or palpable)
- uncomfortable in lying positions
- Pain and difficulty during sexual intercourse
- About 1 in 5 pregnant women have PGP
- 50% to 70% of women suffer from lumbar- pelvic pain during pregnancy
- True PGP occurs in 14-22% of all pregnant women and 5-8% of these have severe pain and disability
- PGP remains in 7% of women after birth
What Causes Pregnancy Related Pelvic Girldle Pain?
It can be due to various factors and often there is no obvious explanation.
Combination of factors:
- the pelvic girdle joints move asymmetrically
- dysfunction in the pelvic girdle biomechanics (from altered activity in the spinal, abdominal, pelvic girdle, hip and/or pelvic floor muscles)
- the hormone Relaxin tends to loosen the pelvic girdle creating instability
- Occasionally the position of the baby may produce symptoms allied to PGP.
Main Risk Factors:
- History of previous LB/pelvic girdle pain and/or previous trauma to the pelvis girdle
- Poor muscle function in the back and pelvis
- PGP in a previous pregnancy
- Multiparity
- Heavy workload and poor workplace ergonomics
- overweight pre and during pregnancy.
- General joint hypermobility
- Having some symptoms doesn't mean it will automatically get worse
- Early diagnosis, advice and treatment can lead to full resolution or reduction of the symptoms (However, in a small % of women, PGP may persist after the birth, mainly if not managed appropriately)
- Osteopathy can help prevent and manage PGP with the use of soft tissue, gentle mobilization and balancing. We can follow your pregnancy make sure your body stays balanced and ready for birth.
Your osteopath will show you appropriate stretches and exercises to do such as:
Pelvic tilts
Abdominal strength and awareness.
If you are pregnant or have just had a baby and if you have any of these symptoms please call Eglantine at the osteopathic clinic in Islington to arrange an appointment on 020 7288 2999 or click the link below to make an appointment.

Her, Inside
Living for so much of my life on a diet, I forgot how to listen to her.
Her, Inside.
She used to tell me that she was
Not loving my food.
Sick of working out so long every day.
And somewhere along the line I forgot how to listen. I stopped hearing. And she stopped trying to speak up and advocate for my needs. For me, it became more important to be a certain size than it was to honor what my body really wanted and needed.
The good news, my friends, is that she's still in there. Waiting for me to tune in. To listen to Her, inside.
She's inside of all of you, too. And no matter how long you've been following plans that tell you how and what to eat, you can step back into a place of listening and honoring at any time.
What happens if you can't hear Her?
Try to eat meals regularly until you start feeling regularly hunger signals. Sometimes we have to "reset" the system by letting our bodies know that food is no longer scarce. Once it trusts you enough to know that you'll feed when prompted, they'll start showing up.
And then let yourself feel hunger. Do you remember what hunger even feels like? It seems like a silly question, but I need you to really think about this. Maybe you eat too often and don't let your body send you any signals. Or maybe you thought the lightheadedness, the grouchiness, etc. was on account of needing to drink water or having a bad day at work. Get to know how hunger presents itself. Do you get anxious? Hangry? Feel unable to concentrate? Feel pains in your stomach? Just observe.
Then write. Keep a small journal of what your hunger acts and feels like. How fast does it take you to go from kind of hungry to STARVING? This usually only takes once or twice before you understand what your range and gauge and tolerance is. Map it out on a scale of 1-10; 1 being that you are satisfied and don't need to eat at all and 10 being that you are willing to just about anything and everything because you are so hungry. Some people get to a 10 before they even notice they're hungry. Others can't get past a 3.
Remember that this all takes time. You might've tuned her out for years, decades even… so it might take a few weeks to start catching the signals. Patience is a necessity.
And know that this is an ever-changing thing. One day you might notice that you hardly eat at all because you just weren't hungry and others might make you feel like you don't stop eating because your body tells you to. That's perfectly normal and totally fine.
Learning how to listen to Her again is so freaking liberating. It's reconnecting again to your whole self. Taking back your power by honoring your needs.

Ten Reasons you Know you are Too Old to go Back to SchoolPublished Date: September 21st, 2011
Category: Weekly Thought
1) You have lower back pain not because you were drunkenly falling under cars in sub-zero, icy weather or because you decided it was a good idea to participate in your roommate's boyfriend's "shopping cart races," but because you are too old to carry a back pack full of $500 worth of books.
2) You can't believe you just spent $500 on books, which is how much you spent on beer for ALL FOUR YEARS OF COLLEGE.
3) You eagerly wait for hand-outs from your teacher on the 1st day of class and are told that "everything is available on Blackboard."
4) You immediately look at the Blackboard in your actual classroom and see that it is blank.
5) The 20-something next to you kindly explains that Blackboard is an online organizational system that you can access via your college's email system.
6) You didn't realize you had an email address with your college.
7) After telling the helpful 20-something that you haven't been to school in 18 years, he looks at you and says, "Wow! You look good for your age."
8) You now realize that every time you told someone they looked good for their age, you were really just telling them, "Wow! You're really old!"
9) You then pull out your Transformers pencil sharpener and pencil case that you stole from your 6-year-old because you are too cheap to purchase your own school supplies.
10) The little hipster boy sitting next to you in his skinny jeans and tight retro t-shirt looks at your Transformer pencil sharpener and is wondering if he should buy one? You barely notice because you are SO TIRED. Because it turns out going back to school at age 38 when you have a child and a husband who works all the time BLOWS.
And every day my list grows just a LITTLE bit longer. But I push on so maybe one day, if I'm lucky, you too can come visit me at your local Walgreens so I can test you for strep throat…Yeah nursing school!

Moving newbies and experienced movers alike know that moving means lots of details and expense; both groups want economical ways to move. If you're one of the 37 million people who move every year and are looking at a move of 100 miles or more, you may need a long-distance moving service. The American Moving & Storage Association reports that the average cost of a 1,225-mile interstate household move in 2009 was $4,300. Plan ahead to keep your long-distance moving services bill as low as possible.
What's Free?
When you start looking at long-distance moving services, ask what they do for free. Try to find a service that offers free, on-site written estimates for the best chance to keep your moving expenses under control. Moving services and supplies add to your total moving bill. Ask about free moving boxes, free protective supplies such as bubble wrap and furniture blankets, free door-to-door delivery and other free services such as packing or furniture disassembly.
Make a List and Check It Twice
Prepare a list of questions to ask moving companies to make it easier to compare and decide which to use. Ask about service details such as free on-site written estimates; written inventories; door-to-door delivery; assembly and disassembly; and policies for lost and damaged items. Ask about financial details about how rates are charged: by weight, mileage, volume or a combination. Inquire about deposits and cancellation fees, minimums and additional costs such as insurance and bonding. Ask the company if it offers any discounts, specials or sales. Make copies of the list of questions to use with each mover you contact and write down the date and name of the company representative.
Get Estimates
Get several estimates and ask for a fixed estimate rather than an itemized estimate for the best deal. Compare the estimate you receive to your list of questions for that mover and ask about any discrepancies. Consider using a mover referral service such as UShip.com, Moving.org or MissouriMover.org. Have movers quote you for your moving job; supply accurate descriptions for accurate quotes. Compare at least three estimates; more if you have time.
Watch Out for Hidden Charges
If you have unusual items to move, such as a piano or an extra-wide refrigerator, be aware they may cost extra to move. Difficult entryways, stairs, elevators or other unusual access situations cause movers extra time and liability and they pass the expense to the customer. If you receive a fixed estimate and made the mover aware of any unusual items, read your contract to check for any clauses about things not covered in the estimate.

620 Lindsay Street
Suite 100
Chattanooga, TN 37403
© 2020 First Things First
In 2014, NBA superstar LeBron James posted a picture of himself, and an open letter to his father, on Instagram:
"Like wow dad, you know what, I don't know you, I have no idea who you are but because of you is part of the reason who I am today. The fuel that I use — you not being there — it's part of the reason I grew up to become who I am. It's part of the reason why I want to be hands on with my endeavors … So me in a position allowing people around me to grow that maybe wouldn't have happened if I had two parents, two sisters, a dog and a picket fence, you know?"
His Instagram comment: "Because of you Pops! Thanks all along. Could have said why me with u not being there but look what I made of myself."
In spite of the "thanks," reading between the lines one could hear sarcasm, pain and anger about his father's absence.
"I can so identify with where LeBron is coming from," says Kenneth Braswell, executive director of Fathers Incorporated. "I am a black man whose pent-up rage for my absent father drove me to do what I believed to be the right thing, for the right reason and with the right justification. Then I found out it was all wrong."
Braswell believes, and research concurs, that there are hundreds of thousands of boys and men in America harboring pain and anger as a result of father absence.
"The biggest lesson I have learned in life about my anger towards my father is: The more anger towards the past that I carry in my heart, the less capable I am of loving in the present," says Braswell. "It is essential that fatherless sons are supported in multiple ways to address our pain and anger appropriately so we can be positive male role models for all children."
Braswell wants to help people deal with the pain and anger they feel. He offers these words of advice to those growing up without their father:
"My goal is to be a positive role model for my son and other children," Braswell says. "Every now and then, I felt like I had to tell the world I was OK. And, that my father was insignificant in my life in order to suppress the fact that his absence was extremely significant in my life.
"I will never be able to offer the world my best based on the hatred of another. Especially not the hatred of my father."

High Mark plumbing has your plumbing service in Hastings Vancouver, B.C. Plumbing service can range from those small emergency calls to repair a faucet or to thaw out a frozen intake line or drain, to making new installations or upgrades to older systems.
At one time a hand pump at the kitchen sink was high technology. Today, plumbing does much more. Your plumbing system might include a water line to a refrigerator that dispenses cold water and ice cubes, hot and cold water for close washers and dishwashers, bathtubs showers, or even a hot tub. In addition to these things, your plumbing might hook up to a boiler that is used to create radiant heat or even generate electricity. Tai Chi describes water as the strongest force in the world. Certainly, it is important to our health, our cleanliness, and our general lifestyle. The human body requires clean, potable water for drinking. Being freed from the labor of carrying water is a major convenience. Too often, we take for granted the convenience of turning a tap and filling a glass with clear water or dropping our weekly laundry into a machine to get it clean. Plumbing service can help keep your plumbing system running correctly, enabling your use of running water.
High Mark Plumbing has your plumbing service in Hastings Vancouver, B.C., call (604)945-6060 to learn more about how we can help you enjoy the convenience of modern plumbing. There was once a man who favored a back to the land lifestyle. He commented that his wife kept their clothing very clean by doing hand laundry. However, no comment is recorded from the wife. In times past, the weekly laundry was one of the hardest household chores.

Governor's wildfire advisors to include Summi County's Dan Gibbs
summit daily news
DENVER – Last year, after a wildfire caused by a prescribed burn killed three people and destroyed dozens of homes, Gov. John Hickenlooper put a halt to all controlled burns on state lands.
The move didn't heavily impact Summit County, where pile burns take place primarily on federal land, but the decision to loosen the statewide ban announced last week will.
As part of an executive order amendment allowing prescribed burns under specific conditions, Hickenlooper also formally created a Wildland and Prescribed Fire Advisory Committee, tasked with advising statewide fire officials on wildland and prescribed fire matters.
Summit County Commissioner Dan Gibbs, a former state lawmaker and volunteer wildland firefighter will serve as a member of the committee representing an association of Colorado's counties.
The group has held two meetings already, he said.
"The executive order adds teeth to this committee and reflects the support of the governor," Gibbs told the Summit Daily in an email. "The advisory committee will work to improve Colorado's approach to forest health and to develop a long-term strategy for sustaining vital resources."
Hickenlooper called the advisory committee necessary the revision of last year's prescribed burn suspension. Prior to signing the executive order Jan. 30, he stressed the importance of working with local governments on issues relating to wildfires.
"Wildfires don't respect municipal or county divisions," he said. "They cross all manner of boundaries. Therefore, we've got to make sure we are actively working with counties and municipalities across the state."
Prescribed burns are the scheduled and controlled burning of piles of excess forest debris.
Under the amended executive order the burns will be allowed only where there are 4-6 inches of snow on the ground and neighbors will have to be informed of the impending burn.
The summer of 2012 made history as Colorado's worst fire season on record, beginning in March and witnessing the destruction of hundreds of homes, the burning of hundreds of thousands of acres of land and the loss of six lives before it came to an end.

Ferdinand, who was charged on Monday night by the FA after acknowledging a tweet from a follower earlier this month which described Cole as a "choc-ice", is believed to be more likely to be fined than banned should he be found guilty of the charge.
But with the player understood to be exasperated by the FA's stance on the issue and its position on the use of Twitter, Ferdinand is to consider his options with the club's advisers before responding to the charge later this week.
An FA statement, issued on Monday, read: "The FA has today charged Manchester United's Rio Ferdinand with improper conduct in relation to comments posted on Twitter. The allegation is that the player acted in a way which was improper and/or bought the game into disrepute by making comments which included a reference to ethnic origin and/or colour and/or race.
"Ferdinand has until 4pm on Aug 2 to respond to the charge."
A fine is understood to be the likeliest outcome subject to Ferdinand accepting the charge. Carlton Cole was fined £20,000 by the FA in April last year following a tweet during England's 1-1 draw against Ghana at Wembley, when he tweeted: "Immigration has surrounded the Wembley premises. I knew it was a trap! Hahahaha. The only way to get out safely is to wear an England jersey and paint your face w/ the St George's flag!"
The tweet relating to Ashley Cole which has now earned Ferdinand a charge followed the acquittal of John Terry of racially abusing Ferdinand's brother, Anton. Cole acted as a witness in the trial.
A day after the verdict, Ferdinand appeared to endorse a tweet describing Cole as a "choc ice", a slang term perceived as meaning black on the outside and white on the inside.
Ferdinand tweeted: "I hear you fella! Choc ice is classic hahahahahaha!!"
Ferdinand later tweeted that it was "not a racist term. It's a type of slang/term used by many for someone who is being fake".
Cole said at the time he did not plan to complain. "Ashley Cole has been made aware of the discussion following comments appearing on Twitter and wishes to make it clear that he and Rio Ferdinand are good friends and Ashley has no intention of making any sort of complaint," a spokesman for him said at the time.
"Ashley appreciates that tweeting is so quick it often results in off-hand and stray comments."
While Ferdinand has yet to decide on his response to the charge – an acceptance of the charge has not been ruled out – the 33 year-old has fought the FA in the past when he believed himself to have been wrongly punished by the governing body.
In January 2010, Ferdinand fought a three-game ban for violent conduct after hitting out at Hull City's Craig Fagan, only to be given an extra game on the suspension because the FA panel regarded his appeal to be 'frivolous.'

Don't Judge Jura By It's Cover: Jura Origin 10yo
Recently with the gathering for the Distant Thunder Whisky Club event #6 I, The Baron, was host for the evening. As part of being the host brings the honour of choosing the whisky for the events tastings. The previous meeting held at The Converted's brought us an extremely robust and full bodied beauty, the Sullivans Cove Port Maturated Cask Strength, and what a body it had. In light of the previous tasting I deliberately thought to take a more modest approach and yet also bring a bit of surprise. My choice was the Jura Origin 10yo.
Don't confuse Jura with Islay even though they are next door to each other. Jura whisky shares virtually no traits (that I have tasted with this or the Superstition) to typical Islay peated whiskies.
Visit the Jura website and you will find a modest yet proud distillery. Recently I posted a small article, Jura Cast, about an online tasting at the Jura website and in my words, which I still stand firm on, "No hype, no big claims, and no bull, yet really well presented". I think that is also exactly how you should take this whisky.
Jura Origin 10yo:
Colour is dark and amber.
To nose I get a tickle and mild portish scent. Has it been finished in a port cask I cannot say though when I open a bottle of port to check it is certainly close. Also very light apples and pears, mildly medicinal and spicy but all quite clean.
To taste a lot of bite and tingle on the lips and throat. Again apples and pears but then some sweet woody oak. I would like to say more but I just cannot pin it down well enough. I also get an unfortunate bicarb soda/alkaline effect if I breath in at the same time. Clearly breathing in just draws the alcohol vapours through the pallet and not exactly the smartest thing to do but after years of drinking wine it is sometimes a habit hard to break.
The finish is warming but not overly tiresome unlike some other whiskies where you just get sick to death of the heat. The tingle remains for a long time and I do wish it could be mellowed a bit.
Like the Jura Superstition I actually can relate this much more towards the Highland Park family style than anything else even though they are leagues apart in environmental conditions. Match them up together and I am sure they are probably nothing alike.
If I was to give a dram I would give the Jura Origin 10yo a 5 1/2 out of 7. This is certainly a daily dram one could come to love. Maybe not completely to my tastes but I would not knock back a dram if I was offered. In fact it is the type of whisky I wish I would see on the shelf of the local bar instead of the typical Glenffidich.
Other notes:
The bottle is unique, rounded and soft and certainly gives it a place on the shelf amongst so many others. Look at the packaging though and your start to think of Caribbean Island life with the impressions of what looks like forms of Tropical Palms or South American Flax (rather confusing visually). Don't be put off by this though because if you get glimpses of the Jura distillery these plants are clearly growing there. Are they native whom knows maybe Willie Tait can explain it for us?
Enjoy the Jura for what it is. Just don't expect a Islay and you will be happy with the results.

Re-learn your work life balance, work with us to find the right fit for you.
Amid political and economic turbulence, a range of organisations have been hiring Strategy, Projects & Change Management professionals to help navigate the uncertain times.
In the most basic terms, a strength-based interview focuses on what you enjoy doing, rather than what you are capable of doing, like in a competency-based interview.
An unprecedented level of uncertainty caused by external occurrences has resulted in firms not committing to multi-year programmes. Subsequently, recruitment has largely reduced.

Half number 8 completed 8 days after half number 7 🙂 Such an accomplishment! The VA Beach Half was great! I would definitely run this race again. I would make a long weekend out of the event as well. The expo was fun, and definitely not crowded. We arrived Thursday night and we were able to get settled in and make it to the expo on Friday mid afternoon. One of the members of the group was going through the expo and race experience for the first time. So he was like a kid in the candy shop. It was easy to get our bibs and then head to the shirts. No lines at this point. J&A Racing had several items for sale which was great and reasonably priced. I got a new tank top to run in this spring and summer. Then we were able to mosey around the expo and visit a few other booths and get some freebie items.
Saturday came around and it was so nice out. It was still a bit chilly but there wasn't a rain drop in site. Saturday we walked around Norfolk and got to visit some great sites after some lunch. It was a heavy walking day but not as much as Sunday was going to be. We got to visit some of the ships and see the dry docks. I would love to go back and visit and enjoy all that Norfolk has to offer. Obviously with the race the next day, it was an early night and I got about 6 hours of sleep so that wasn't bad.
Sunday was an early day waking up at 4:30am. YIKES! Who decides to wake up that early on a Sunday?! Well this group did. We had breakfast, got ready for the race, in our race day attire. I had a plot twist for my outfit since it was cooler than I thought it would be. I wore a gray tank top with my gray pullover and of course my sparkle skirt, visor and rainbow socks. My feet were acting up from the day before so I taped them up and brought Advil with me. Before we knew it we were headed to the race start line. I was in corral 4 so that wasn't bad. I was able to start strong. I stuck with my 4 minute run/1 minute walk ratio. I find it so much easier to concentrate on those 4 minutes versus how many miles I have left. I think this will help with my marathon training and running the NYC Marathon. You don't realize how fast that 1 minute walk goes by.
I finished in 2 hours 28 minutes. It was nice to finish. Definitely not my fastest time but for not really training, I'll certainly take it. My sister and her boyfriend had a friend running his first marathon down there so we went and cleaned up and then headed back to the finish line and finish line party. It was nice. My feet still hurt so I didn't venture into the sand too much. I stayed on terra firma so I could get off my feet and sit. The after party was awesome and hope that when I run this race again, I'll be able to be out on the sand and not dealing with the pain of my feet. It was chilly out and I didn't bring a sweatshirt but they gave us towels at the finish line so I was able to stay warmer than if I hadn't had that. Before long we were sitting in a restaurant and having some food before we left to go back to where we were staying to venture home.
When I do this race again, I would get up early Friday morning and venture down to VA
Beach and stay until Monday so I could have a leisurely weekend and didn't have to rush back to go back to work. I would even consider going down Friday night. The only downside would be the possible crowds at the expo on Saturday. But overall I would definitely run this race. The on course support was amazing. The water and gatorade was every 1.5 miles and the gu was offered at mile 5 or so. That came quick since it's usually offered at mile 9 during a half marathon course. It was great and the last few tenths of a mile on the boardwalk was great. It was good spectator watching and cheering us on as we finished. It was great.
I hope you all had a great weekend and great start to your week!

Max Duran is a vampire. After they bump into each other (literally) they start a psychic conversation that is Kelly's first communication with a live person. (Or an undead, solid one anyway!)

When Kelly is blackmailed by Max to go to him in person…she's furious. But she's about to find out just how devious a vampire can think. Will she run away from fate…or will Max show her just how much pleasure there is in being wicked?

Cultural encounters, mobilities and borders
Deeper understanding of cultural encounters, mobilities and borders
Issues relating to globalisation concern us all. Cultural, linguistic and religious encounters, as well as changing identities, are very topical in today's world. Migration and mobilities, and different geographical and mental borders, are also topics of discussion among decision-makers and citizens alike. Research-based knowledge enhances humanity's understanding of our rapidly changing world, and gives us tools to tackle various challenges and to discover new opportunities.
Our research is internationally prominent, providing solutions to issues relating to mobilities, borders and security. In these topics of research, we constantly generate new knowledge that is rapidly available to societal decision-makers. In border studies, our strengths lie in research addressing internal borders and the border between the European Union and Russia. Border studies in the context of the humanities, on the other hand, makes visible the multi-layered nature of borders and provides tools for understanding different perspectives.

Note - this blog post was in 2007. There are some newer photos of the Big Buddha on the blog - see Big Buddha 2009 - Big Buddha 2010.
When the Big Buddha is finally finished, it is going to be magnificent. And I am pretty sure it will be on the tourist trail. When we first went up there a few years ago, the work was just starting and the road was hard work on our car. We've been up the mountain many times and I have blogged about it before (see Buddha Mountain 1 - Buddha Mountain 2). We realised that we'd not been up for about a year, and it's clear that the project has been making great strides in the last year. The Big Buddha is getting bigger. You can clearly see the shape of the Buddha now, despite it being covered in scaffolding. Looks like the major building work is almost done, and it's time to add the decorations.
The road up the mountain is being improved too. A concrete road now exists for much of the climb, though there are still some stretches of dirt. But it's not damaging our car any more! Having a good road will be essential once the Big Buddha is complete to allow the tours to include it in their itineraries.
The weather last week was great - I still wouldn't trust the road in wet conditions. The views were great (as always). We go up there for the views and the fresh air. The Big Buddha itself is nothing to look at just yet - a pile of concrete in the approximate shape of the Buddha, covered from top to toe in scaffolding. We'll be sure to drive up again when the project is complete.

Effortlessness, It's Never Easy if You Try
Seeking to postpone stock experiences and squeeze them all into our few days together, I avoided visiting the Tower until my mother arrived. We didn't eat macarons at Ladurée, we didn't get hot chocolate at Café de Flore, we didn't jostle for selfies with La Joconde, but we went to the Tower. The visit itself is a symbolic gesture, because the symbol literally haunts no matter where you are in the world. Those curving lines, stretching skyward like a bit of pinched and pulled-up landscape, are waiting everywhere. The Tower's lines glow from a smartphone screen as a spectacularly boring person's Twitter avatar. They spike through the trees on a private estate somewhere in the Romanian countryside. They glimmer at you during lunch, rhinestoned violently onto an iPhone case at a strip mall kiosk manned by a bored girl drooped over a stool.
Once you reach the base and have technically visited, you immediately have to jog a few hundred meters to actually get to the very thing worth coming for: a picture, the concluding evidence that the French won the late 19th century trans-Atlantic potlatch. The Eiffel Tower gives again and again.
Hollow-bodied and thin-skinned (only 2mm thick and pieced together), the Statue of Liberty is not for you. Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi needed Eiffel to make the the thing even stand. It's a foisted-off, recycled design rejected by the Egyptians, anyway.
Vogue, October 2006; Courtesy of the author
The word effortless is another rather airy structure. I would say it's a hollow word, as certain words have insides and outsides. Not this one. Airiness has its credentials as the most pat descriptor of personal style. Yet it is to be taken, unequivocally, as a compliment. Being told you look effortless is your reward for being thoughtful about your clothes without betraying thoughtfulness, effacing the labor of pretty (or cool, or chic, or whatever). In high school, the losery girl is the one who 'tries too hard.' It isn't the trying itself that's so bad, it's the unsightliness of trying, the appearance of work. Effortless has taken the extra step of masking its own effort, which makes 'effortlessness' nothing more than an aesthetic. Modern design at large characterized by flaunting its functions while disguising its processes. An iPad is so designed up its ass, it looks matter of fact. Every thinking person's apartment is full of cantilevered wood and seamless acrylic things that stream porn and call mom once in a while.
The paradox of the Tower—perhaps 'design' as a whole—is that lines and abstract calculations are made manifest. Every link and rivet was so well planned ahead—the plans look messier than the Tower itself—its construction resembled something like growth: organic and inevitable.
From the Fashion Blog 'The Blonde Salad'.
In explaining how modern engineering necessarily snubs the marks of labor, art historian Darcy Grigsby incidentally touches on something more intimately corporeal. 'Geometry,' she explains, 'typically excludes the notion of matter, despite the fundamental relation it bears to bodies in space.' The same might be said, obliquely, of a fashion image, perhaps even more so of its colloquial kid-sisters: the outfit post, the street-style shot, the #ootd… Images which ostensibly instruct, in more or less pect ways, on how to dress, without taking into consideration matters of matter: your needs, your quotidian obligations, your body size and shape. But the accretion of these images eventually shapes real world behaviors: they teach you how to dress. 'Surfaces,' Grigsby goes on to say, 'in and of themselves, are not self-supporting.' But they don't need to be, because ideas literally have no weight. Plaster enough surfaces with models suspended midair in a white seamless ur-scape, and this too, looks inevitable.
Inside the Statue of Liberty is a skeleton of Eiffel's hours at the drawing board. All that hard work on paper disappeared on the final product, and we are left marveling at sculptor Bartholdi's neato statue. The Tower is a picture of its own idea. A drawing projected onto physical space, coolly eschewing the marks of labor, and literally shedding labor with every step it neared completion. Picture Eiffel doling out pink slips to workers as they made their way down, until there was only one left, who, after inching the topmost rod this way and that, like a Christmas ornament, crawled down alone. Nothing left to clean up but his lunch wrapper.
What I do know about an outfit photo is just as likely as not, the cute designer bag bouncing on her hip is empty.

So we have been traveling by air a little more than we normal do and I am loving it. Well most of it! I don't fear heights, turbulence, or the fear of people. The airplane travel was a breeze. No issues with travel or getting from one plane to another. We boarded the plane and found out seat quickly for the next leg of the flight. I placed my things in the overhead bin, slipped my purse under the seat in front and set up to work during the flight.
We were on a plane called the A88. The only reason I remember that was the lady behind me complaining about how much she hated this plane. Great! Its going to be one of the those conversations. I sat down and watched people board the plane. I love that part of travel. The line of people died downed and I decided to go ahead and get ready for the flight. I sat back in the seat, pulled the seat belt, grabbed the other end and waited on the click. Crickets! I tugged again. Nothing. Looking down to my stomach there was a two inch gap. TWO SMALL Inches! I examined the belts, both were at the end of their give. I decided to give it one good heave ho! Nope! Not today. My hands were getting rope burns on them from me yanking so hard. I looked up at Mr. Mann in defeat.
He reached over and tried to assist me to see if this was simply "stuck" somewhere and that is where the two inches were hiding from me. That wasn't it! I twisted, slunk down in my seat, shifted sideways, there was no matching making for these two components of the airline seat. I looked up from my challenge and caught the attention of the flight attendant. She came over with that loving and professional smile and leaned into my seat. I knew what I was up against. I sat up tall and asked, "May I have a seat belt extender?" Oh My God! What words just slipped out of my mouth? She looked at me in the eye and said "Sure."
I watched her walk away into the front of the plane. I was happy with the results of what I just did. I owned up to the need for a seatbelt extender on a plane. This was my reality. My very true reality. She jaunted back to my row with her hand cupped. She reached over and slipped the neatly rolled extender into my hand. The whole transaction remind me of a drug deal. No one saw, so no one was none the wiser.
I unrolled the extender and it slid into the components smoothly. For the first time in my life, I had to wear a seat belt extender. I have to say I wasn't emotional about what just transpired on the airplane. The flight attendant treated it in a very professional manner and didn't make me feel awkward. Yes, the plane was the smallest out of all of the ones were had flown on and that was the only flight I needed the extender.
Being able to face the fact I needed an extender allowed me to reflect on many things. Thankfulness that they had one and the realization that I need to take care of myself first. Gratitude that I wasn't sitting next to the lady behind me who first start the tirade of the betrayal of A88 planes. Irony of that passenger, she as her seat mate was a flight attendant who was being transferred to another airport. He spent most of the time telling her about the intimate details of the A88 and how wonderful it was to be on the plane.
Morale of the story: Don't be afraid to speak up for yourself. I promise you, you are not the first nor the last people that will need a seat belt extender. Just be ready to receive it like a back alley drug deal.

SAY WHAT? (What is the passage saying?)
- In the first line of this chapter Paul tells his readers to "rejoice in the Lord". He's telling them to find joy in Jesus. When we choose to follow Jesus then this becomes natural because Jesus took our place on the cross... and that changes everything. Whether we just got baptized or have been following Jesus for years, His love and sacrifice for us should be a consistent source of joy.
- Right after talking about joy, Paul launches into a warning. He tells the Philippians to "watch out" for those "mutilators of the flesh." He's talking about a group of Jewish Christians who taught that in order to follow Jesus you must first get circumcised and then follow the Jewish law. This is a great threat to genuine faith in Jesus. In fact, Paul wrote (the bible book of) Galatians to address this issue.
- Paul tells us (verse 20) that our true citizenship is in heaven. Therefore our minds should be focused on heavenly things, like Jesus and who He wants us to be.
- The Bible teaches us that Jesus is going to come again, this time not to live amongst us and die for our sins, but to bring the world as we know it to an end, and usher in a new time. We read here (verse 20) that we should be eagerly awaiting Jesus' return.
SO WHAT? (What are the underlying principles?)
- Our joy should be in Jesus.
- Seeking any kind of "credentials" to get us favor with God is a waste of time and actually counter-productive. Instead we should imitate Paul, who "considers everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord." The idea is that rather than trying to be good enough for God, we should see to know, love and have our faith in Jesus, who was good enough for us.
NOW WHAT? (How will you personally apply this passage?)
- What in your life brings you joy? Where is Jesus in the mix of those things? What do you think rejoicing in the Lord looks like? What things suffocate your joy? What things stoke your joy in Jesus? Make a habit of focusing on Jesus and doing more of the things that make you joyful about Him.
- When you do good things for God, do you feel like you're earning something from Him? If you bad things, do you feel like it threatens His love for you or your relationship with Him? If you have put your faith in Jesus, your standing with God is based on Jesus' resume, not yours'. Be thankful for that, and do good to show your gratitude.

Lisa Engelken's Little Warrior does precisely what a good sophomore album should: build upon a solid base (her 2010 debut, Caravan) while growing more adventurous and, by extension, more original. Working with a superb West Coast rhythm section-bassist Sam Bevan, drummer Matthew Swindells (both from Caravan) and pianist Bill Cantos-augmented by brass, strings, percussion and backing vocals from 13 interwoven guests, Engelken wades in gently with her own "Foggy Bottom," a staccato elegy to a dying relationship, followed by a breezy, Brasil '66-esque take on Signor Rossi's "Viva la Felicità."
About midway through the third track-a cover of the Cars' "You Wear Those Eyes" that progresses from tiptoe to sashay to orgasmic eruption-Engelken's natural state, that of a barely contained pressure cooker, is revealed. She keeps the lid secured across a bewitching "Throw It Away"; then, fittingly, she explodes on "Housemate From Hell," a wail-fueled cacophony that seems the nightmare version of "Eleanor Rigby." The untamed brilliance continues through "Undertow," Engelken's chillingly hypnotic reinterpretation of Wayne Shorter's "Nefertiti," and a storm-dotted navigation of Chick Corea's "Sea Journey."
To close, Engelken reinforces her versatility with an ice-cool rendering of Joni Mitchell's "Cold Blue Steel and Sweet Fire" that gradually turns blistering, an edge-of-madness reading of Tom Waits' "Blue Valentines," and a sparkling "All I Do Is Dream of You" that's at once wholesome and wicked.

Merge requests versions
Every time you push to a branch that is tied to a merge request, a new version of merge request diff is created. When you visit a merge request that contains more than one pushes, you can select and compare the versions of those merge request diffs.
Selecting a version
By default, the latest version of changes is shown. However, you can select an older one from version dropdown.
Merge request versions are based on push not on commit. So, if you pushed 5 commits in a single push, it will be a single option in the dropdown. If you pushed 5 times, that will count for 5 options.
You can also compare the merge request version with an older one to see what has changed since then.
Comments are disabled while viewing outdated merge versions or comparing to versions other than base.
Every time you push new changes to the branch, a link to compare the last changes appears as a system note.

We have discussed stem cell research on this site before, and I seem to remember it being a fairly hot topic at the time, elections and all. Well, there is a scientific conference taking place this week in San Francisco, California on just that topic. In fact, the summit is dealing specifically with stem cells research and multiple sclerosis.
The gathering of well-respected researchers is being hosted by the joint efforts of the National MS Society, Multiple Sclerosis International Federation and Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada.
I have listened to some of the podcasts from the conference over the past few days and found them quite interesting.
This technology is far from "ready" for clinical use. The promise, however, of long-term therapies and even a "cure" for MS seem quite hopeful.
For those of you who have issue with the embryonic stem cell issue, you'll also be happy to know that there are advances in adult stem cells (as in harvesting one's own cells from your bone marrow) as well.
As this congress begins to debate funding and our president, once again, threatens to use the veto, I thought it might be a good time to look to exactly stem cell research might mean in direct relation to multiple sclerosis
Wishing you and your family the best of health.

Buy a Disney time share at a fair price, with all of the amenities that make for a wonderful trip to the Magic Kingdom.
Buying a Disney time share can provide vacationers with the opportunity to own a piece of real estate in the most popular travel destination in the world. When it comes to selling a timeshare, Disney definitely knows what they are doing. They have some of the nicest timeshare units in the world and they are full of accommodations that travellers want.
Here are a few things to consider about buying a Disney World timeshare.
Finding a Disney Time Share
There are several ways that an individual could potentially find Disney timeshares. The easiest way to get information about this type of timeshare is to go directly to Disney. The Disney Vacation Club is the division that is in charge of selling timeshares. Another way to gain access is to purchase Disney timeshare re-sales. There are a number of third-party sites that will resell Disney timeshares that have already been purchased by others.
How the Program Works
The basic idea behind this program is that a purchaser will receive a certain amount of vacation points. In most cases, the packages will start out at about 150 points. Every year, 150 points will be credited to the individual. The points can be used for vacations at many different Disney resorts and properties. These points can be used on an annual basis or they can be accumulated to get an even bigger and better vacation.
How to Save Money on a Disney Time Share
If saving money is important, an individual can work with a third-party seller of Disney timeshares. When an individual no longer wants their timeshare, they can sell it to someone else. Often these individuals are willing to sell the property at a deep discount, in order to get rid of it. Buyers should be careful with these transactions and make sure that they are working with a reputable seller, since it will not be directly processed through Disney.
Benefits of Disney Timeshares
Purchasing this type of real estate can provide several benefits to vacationers. These timeshares are very flexible and also provide owners with a number of discounts to Disney theme parks and products. In addition to this, if a vacationer cannot use the points, they can rent out the property to someone else. Disney rentals can generate some nice money for the owner of the property.
Buying a Disney Time Share
When it is time to make a purchase, an individual should look at several things. The location of the resort, the upfront costs, and the maintenance fees should all be a factor in the decision. If the amount of money that it takes to buy the timeshare seems affordable, an individual should buy the property. Most vacationers are very happy with Disney timeshares and there are very few negative experiences overall

CLINTON, MS – Completing a stretch of four matches in four days while playing in three different states, Florida Southern closed out a grueling road trip with a perfect record after defeating Mississippi College 7-2 on Sunday afternoon.
The Moccasins, who are now 3-2 overall, played a make-up match with Flagler in Lakeland on Thursday afternoon before embarking on their trip that had them play three matches against Gulf South Conference and South Region opponents Alabama-Huntsville, West Alabama and Mississippi College. After winning the first two on Friday and Saturday, the Mocs made it three in a row Sunday in breezy conditions by claiming three very tight doubles matches before wins by juniors Jose de Sario and Laurent Mailloux put the Mocs up 5-0 and secured the outcome.
De Sario won his match at No. 2 singles, 6-0, 6-1, which was really the only one-sided score of the day. Mailloux then hit the clincher with his 6-4, 6-2 victory at No. 3, and it gave both he and de Sario 3-0 individual records on the trip. Freshman Oscar Soderlund was also undefeated on the road trip after he outlasted Taylor Griffith at No. 6 singles 6-3, 7-6 (7-5) to give Florida Southern its final team point of the day.
The Moccasins' fourth singles win came from sophomore Brian Slivonik at the No. 5 position, and that 6-4, 6-3 win gave them a 6-0 lead in the match. The Choctaws (4-4) then got their two points at No. 4 and No. 1 before Soderlund closed things out for Florida Southern.
Even though Florida Southern won all three doubles points, all three of those matches were extremely close. Soderlund and Derek Bell gave the Mocs their first point with an 8-6 decision at No. 3, and Mailloux and sophomore Miguel Alvarez-Hevia won their match at No. 1 by the same score. The battle at No. 2 doubles was even tighter, with de Sario and Slivonik pulling out a 9-8 (7-4) victory.
Florida Southern will have Monday off after returning to Lakeland, but will be back in action Tuesday at 5 p.m. when it hosts Chestnut Hill (Pa.).
