Last week, the White House released their plans for the 2018 fiscal year budget. Across many metrics and departments, it was a bloodbath, gutting about $50 billion from agencies focused on science, health, food, arts, humanities, the environment, and education, among many others. But among the reductions was one murderous stroke to NASA: the elimination its flagship mission of the coming decade, WFIRST. The Wide-Field Infrared Space Telescope was chosen by NASA to be the single most important astrophysics mission of the 2020s, and has been in the early planning stages for nearly 20 years. Countless astronomers and astrophysicists have spend their entire professional lives working to make this mission happen, and teach us things we'll never know, otherwise, about the Universe. Cancelling it is a decision that must be revoked, or NASA will cease to be the leading science and space agency for planet Earth.
There are three major parts to NASA as an agency:
Other components of NASA include aeronautics, space technology, education, as well as the construction, maintenance, operation, and management of both space centers and the agency.
While it's disastrous for the agency to consider the loss of five of its Earth science missions and the elimination of its office of education, the loss of WFIRST would be an incomparable disaster for the agency. In short, it would declare that NASA no longer will be actively participating in furthering the development of science in these four arenas.
If that seems like a bit of a bold declaration to you, you need to understand how NASA works, and what its purposes are.
When most people think of NASA, they think of this: a literal moonshot. They think about a massive investment in new technologies, including rocketry, crewed spaceflight, exploration, and discovery. This may have been an accurate portrayal of NASA in the 1960s and early 1970s, but since the end of the Apollo program some 45 years ago, this is no longer what NASA looks like. The reason why NASA no longer looks like this is because we stopped investing in it. What was once a small fraction of NASA's budget is now all that's left. In its heyday, NASA made up nearly 5% of the federal budget. Today, it makes up less than 0.4%. What we're talking about cutting are already mere table scraps compared to what our once-thriving space program used to be.
Despite these constraints and the enormous pressure to do so much with so little, NASA has remained synonymous with cutting-edge science and exploration of the great cosmic unknowns. Internally, the Science Mission Directorate, which oversees all four branches of NASA's science endeavors, has prioritized four different types of mission:
According to Thomas Zurbuchen, Associate Administrator for the Science Mission Directorate of NASA:
What we learn from these flagship missions is why we study the Universe. This is civilization-scale science... If we don't do this, we aren't NASA.
This was a statement he made just last month at NASA's Town Hall at the American Astronomical Society's annual meeting. WFIRST was selected as the #1 overall mission for the 2020s back in 2010; it's a mission that takes approximately 15 years to design, contract, execute, build, deliver, and launch. In terms of science, it planned to primarily serve a number of major communities within astronomy and astrophysics: supernova research, extragalactic astronomers, exoplanet researchers, studies of the galactic center, and wide-field studies that focus on gravitational lensing and properties of the cosmic web.
The way it's poised to do this is by taking a telescope that's similar in optical properties to Hubble, but by outfitting it with all-new instruments optimized for a wide-field view of the Universe. Instead of being limited to a narrow slice of the Universe, WFIRST could image it just as deeply as Hubble, except 60 times as quickly. The "WF" stands for Wide-Field for a reason; the amount of Universe it can image is huge! And as a result, the amount we can learn about the Universe is huge as well.
Some of our greatest existential questions would be answered by WFIRST. How does dark energy behave, for example? Does it evolve over time? Is it uniform in all directions? Do the results from supernovae, the cosmic web, and extragalactic signals all point to the same set of properties? WFIRST would answer all of these questions as no other mission, past, present, or even proposed, would be capable of.
In 2010, the National Research Council's Astronomy and Astrophysics Decadal Survey made WFIRST the top priority recommendation in the large space mission category. They also made a recommendation that they add on significant capabilities for exoplanet studies, including a state-of-the-art coronagraph, and those are being implemented. By monitoring a large sample of stars in the Milky Way's center, WFIRST will allow us to detect, via subtle changes in brightness, the presence of exoplanets that NASA's Kepler could never have seen. We will learn how common Earth-like planets are around a wide variety of stars and over a very large range of orbital parameters.
In addition, like all such flagship missions, including Hubble and James Webb, there will be a guest observer program. Not only will research in galactic, extragalactic, exoplanet, gravitational lensing, baryon acoustic oscillation and supernova sub-fields be considered, but any astrophysical topic that could take advantage of WFIRST's unique capabilities can propose. This is poised to be the leading observatory for a wide slew of purposes for not just a few years, but — like Hubble — potentially for decades.
It was the top choice out of all the missions that the entire astronomy and astrophysics community proposed. It represented a huge effort in collaboration between groups with widely disparate interests and passions, and allowed cosmologists and exoplanet scientists to work together on putting together a mission that these non-overlapping communities could both benefit from. It included the possibility of a starshade, which would enable planet-finding and measurement to an unprecedented level.
And with a nuclear stroke from the Trump administration, it all threatens to crumble away. The entire justification given by the Trump administration was as follows:
Development of the WFIRST space telescope would have required a significant funding increase in 2019 and future years, with a total cost of more than $3 billion. Additionally, a recent independent review concluded that WFIRST was not executable within its previous budget. Given competing priorities at NASA, and budget constraints, developing another large space telescope immediately after completing the $8.8 billion James Webb Space Telescope is not a priority for the Administration. The Budget proposes to terminate WFIRST and redirect existing funds to other priorities of the science community, including completed astrophysics missions and research.
The administration can set whatever priorities it likes for itself, but humanity deserves a space program we can be proud of. We deserve one where scientists, working together over the span of decades, can set their own priorities for what is scientifically valuable. For the (current) 2018 fiscal year, the House and Senate both requested additional funds for WFIRST, recognizing its national importance and even demanding an additional $20M to investigate the feasibility of a starshade.
We absolutely cannot let this project go down without a fight. If WFIRST gets cancelled, it's a sign that even the most important NASA project, as determined by internal, external, and independent reviewers, is subject to political whims. These projects take more than a single presidency to design, approve, build, and launch. Federal funding for these vital missions that enhance all of society must not be allowed to disappear because one human — even if it's the president — wills it. The joys, wonder, knowledge, and benefits that come from exploring and understanding the Universe are greater than any individual.
25 years ago, the Superconducting Supercollider (SSC) was cancelled, and today, the United States doesn't even have a major particle physics facility in the same league as the LHC at CERN, which is itself a vastly inferior machine to what the SSC would have been. The United States must not cede leadership in the space and science arena to Japan, Russia, Europe, China, India and Canada in the same way. Humanity's capability of understanding the entire Universe is at stake.

|On the train at Salisbury, just before getting delayed.
On Friday 5 September, Mum and I took off for the continent via train to escape from the normality of everyday life and unwind a little bit. And, more importantly, we were off to discover the delights of La Braderie De Lille. Oh, and did I mention that we ate a lot of moules frites! You can check out my food diaries for #SugarFreeSeptember for more on that. But by the end we were well and truly 'moule'd out!
|Moules Mariniere
|Moules with cheese
|So many shells. And that's just one street cafe!
So we set off Friday morning to catch the train to London. Unfortunately it was a somewhat delayed train, leading to a rush through the London underground in order to catch the Eurostar. It was mostly definitely a rushed journey and not something I plan to do again soon. Note to self: plan in extra time for delays. But once we were on the Eurostar, we both relaxed and I fetched fruit, tea and mocha from the Waitrose-sponsored bar. 80 minutes later, we were disembarking at Lille-Europe. I was amazed at how quickly the train went from England to France. It was genuinely quicker than Wiltshire to London, without the delays!
|Catching up with Dad on the Eurostar.
Having arrived in Lille, Mum and I proceeded to find our hotel. This involved being
lost disorientated for at least half an hour before finally choosing the correct route and discovering the hotel was only 5-10 minutes from the station. We did feel a little foolish after that. However, we received a great welcome at the Art Deco Euralille and built up a great relationship with the staff on reception through our broken Franglais. Our room was small but more than sufficient for the two of us, with the most amazing shower ever. So good for ridding me of annoying itches on my back. The view was great but mostly definitely a city one. Overlooking the tram lines, it took in a whole mixture of modern and traditional architecture.
We spent the evening in the hotel, recovering from the hectic trip up, before heading out to la ville-centre to find somewhere to eat. On this first night we were eager to try the local take on moules frites and plunge ourselves into the local cuisine. On the first night we chose La Houblonniere in the centre of Lille, a little street cafe that had gone into overdrive for the annual market. The cafe was a type found throughout Lille, and I assume France, but is completely different to the food establishments typically found in Britain. Not to mention the amount of alcohol flowing without the amount of drunkeness. It totally blew Mum away after her experiences as a street pastor.
Afterwards we headed back to the hotel. A bit of telly (the only English was a channel about Chinese culture) and quick wash before attempting to sleep in an incredibly hot room. Probably my only complaint about Art Deco was how hot the room was.
The next day was exploration day! That, for me, was what the whole weekend was all about. Exploring a brand new place and seeing what happens on the day. Mum was a little more nervous as she prefers to be prepared for the unexpected but she still enjoyed herself. We spent five hours wandering around the market, getting court in the crowds of the half-marathon that was also happening, being sweet-talked by traders and dreaming about mergez sausages. These are the most amazing spiced sausages that the French have brought up from Morocco. Unfortunately when I asked for one at La Brassiere De Zoo they misheard me and gave me chicken nuggets. Not happy! And everywhere else served them with bread, which I'm currently avoiding.
The paths were lined with stall after stall, making it a bit of a treasure hunt and heaven for anyone after a bargain. But it wasn't just home, clothes, shoes and bags on offer. There was also dried sausages, cheeses, fresh pastries and nougat. So many varieties of nougat! Oh why was I going sugar free? I so wanted to cave but somehow I walked past each stall without buying a single piece. I'm crying inside just thinking about all that nougat.
After lunch we wound our way back to the hotel where we proceeded to collapse and re-copperate from the crowds. Four hours later, after some napping and some blog planning, we headed out for dinner. Yep, you guessed it, we had moules frites again. Le Basilic Cafe was probably the nearest to 'British' style dining that we had whilst in Lille but it was so nice to eat inside, away from the crowds that were still about. Afterwards we wandered the streets a bit more and ended up in Missmaps, the most incredible shop. They took any photo of any location and turned it into a cardboard 'canvas' to hang on your wall. They could also add simple maps of the town or city in question and even graphic word art to the 'canvas'. After Mum had fallen in love with one of the Lille 'canvases', we wandered a bit more before deciding we were too disorientated and heading back to the hotel. My map reading definitely improved over the weekend. Half an hour later we were back at the hotel and watching more Chinese documentaries.
And I've now probably written enough to cover at least 2 pages of A4 so I'll leave it there for now. Check back tomorrow for the rest of my French adventure.

I have recently gone back to using Maximuscle as part of my supplement stack. Having read an article on Protein spiking and how some companies trick the consumer into thinking they are getting a specified amount of protein, I was shocked at the poor quality of protein powder I was using. I decided to return to maximuscle as they state the full list of ingredients on the label and more importantly the amino acid profile which is where the aforementioned protein spiking comes in (no pointless glycine or taurine here!). You really do get what you pay for and the Promax range is worth every penny.

Constantin Brâncuși - Biography and Legacy
French-Romanian Photographer and Sculptor
Born: February 19, 1876 - Hobitza, Romania
Died: March 16, 1957 - Paris, France

Influences and Connections
"What my work is aiming at is, above all, realism: I pursue the inner, hidden reality, the very essence of objects in their own intrinsic fundamental nature; this is my only deep preoccupation."
Biography of Constantin Brâncuși
The second of four children, Brâncuși was born in the small farming village of Hobitza, Romania, in 1876. He had a difficult childhood, in part due to challenging relationships with his father, a property manager of a monastery, and the children from his previous marriage. After several attempts to leave home, Brâncuși finally did so permanently in 1887, at the age of eleven.
Early Training
From 1889 to 1893, Brâncuși lived in the Romanian city of Craiova, working variously as a waiter, cabinet-maker, and fortune-teller, while attending the School of Arts and Crafts part-time. In 1894, he enrolled full-time at the school, where he excelled in woodworking and ultimately graduated with honors in 1898. Brâncuși then studied modeling and life sculpture at Bucharest's National School of Fine Arts (1898-1902), winning awards for his work in competitions. In 1904, he moved from Romania to Paris, famously travelling most of the way on foot. This story became part of the legend surrounding Brâncuși as a peasant with an exotic heritage; the mythology was actively promoted by the artist himself, who took to wearing Romanian peasant clothing, even on formal occasions, and carved all of his own furniture.
From 1905 to 1907, Brâncuși trained in sculpture and modeling at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, in the sculpture studio of Antonin Mercie. Brâncuși began working as a studio assistant to Auguste Rodin in 1907, but left after only a month, explaining, "Nothing grows under the shadow of big trees." Yet, his month-long tenure in Rodin's workshop was critical in shaping Brâncuși's aesthetic, taking Rodin's work as a point of departure from which to develop his own drastically different artistic practice, characterized by the use of direct carving rather than working from a clay model.
Mature Period
After leaving Rodin's studio, Brâncuși began establishing his own style, beginning with squared works such as The Kiss (1907-08). Despite having the same title as one of Rodin's most famous sculptures, Brâncuși's work was its complete opposite in material and its handling of form and subject. Around 1909, Brâncuși started creating smoother, more contoured sculptures in marble and bronze. He produced multiple, yet distinct versions of works such as The Kiss, Maiastra, and Sleeping Muse, and, by 1912, this career-long method of creating serial versions on the same theme was an established practice in his oeuvre.
Brâncuși's work made its American debut in 1913, when five of his sculptures appeared in the Armory Show in New York. This landmark exhibition brought together new and avant-garde European and American art, much of which was highly controversial. Marcel Duchamp, whose work was also extremely challenging to critics, became an important friend, advocate, and collector of Brancusi's sculptures. While many critics were puzzled by Brâncuși's work, artists flocked to him, and many began collecting his work. Although Brâncuși lived in Paris for most of his life, making only a few trips to New York, he acknowledged the importance of American collectors and critics to his career, saying, "Without the Americans, I could never have produced all that, nor even perhaps have existed."
The photographer Alfred Stieglitz gave Brâncuși his first solo show at his Photo-Secession Gallery in New York in 1914. This successful exhibition also marked the first purchase by collector and modern art advocate John Quinn, who became one of Brâncuși's greatest patrons. That same year, Brâncuși began taking photographs. Many of his photos were of his own studio, recording the specific ways he organized the arrangement of his works, which was highly significant to his creative process, as he considered the base of the sculpture to be just as important as the sculpture itself.
Brâncuși's work continued to provoke public controversy. His Princess X caused a scandal at the 1920 Salon des Indépendants in Paris for its phallic form. Bird in Space became embroiled in a 1927-28 legal battle over the very definition of art when customs officials refused to recognize Bird in Space as artwork, exempting it from customs duties. In response, Edward Steichen, the photographer and owner of the piece, filed a lawsuit. The ruling in Brâncuși's favor constituted a success for abstract art in general. It was also in 1927 that Isamu Noguchi, perhaps Brâncuși's most famous student, worked as his studio assistant.
Late Period
In the 1930s, Brâncuși engaged in discussions with the Maharajah of Indore about building a temple in India, but the public sculpture was never executed. In 1937-38, he created a monumental three-part public artwork for Tirgu-Jiu, Romania, to honor the Romanian soldiers who had fallen in World War I. Spread across a mile of the town, Table of Silence, Gate of the Kiss, and Endless Column treat sacred, spiritual themes. However, like many of his other works, Endless Column has been a source of dispute. In the 1950s, a Communist attempted to dismantle the work, citing it as a corrupt example of Western art. The sculpture remained standing, but was badly damaged, and eventually underwent a lengthy and controversial conservation effort.
Brâncuși received his first retrospective in 1955 at the Guggenheim Museum in New York. Throughout his life, he had carefully arranged and documented the placement of sculptures in his Paris studio. Just prior to his death in 1957, he left his studio to the city's Museum of Modern Art with the proviso that it be preserved. It is currently reconstructed in a Renzo Piano-designed building outside the Pompidou Center.
The Legacy of Constantin Brâncuși
Brâncuși was a pioneering force in modern sculpture, paving the way for many generations of artists. His use of biomorphic forms and integration of his sculptures with their bases influenced the work of such artists as Isamu Noguchi, another major contributor to 20th-century sculpture. Brâncuși's embrace of his materials' distinctive qualities and focus on the technique of direct carving were taken up by such sculptors as Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth, and Jacob Epstein. With its pared-down aesthetic, the reduced forms of his sculptures also had a major impact on the artists associated with the Minimalist movement of the 1960s.
Most Important Art
Constantin Brâncuși Artworks in Focus:
Endless Column (1918)
Originally created in 1918, in Endless Column Brâncuși references the axis mundi, or axis of the world, a concept crucial to the beliefs of many traditional cultures embodying the connection between heaven and earth. This focus reflected Brâncuși's strong and persistent affinity for the sacred, cosmic, and mythical. Endless Column also treats another theme of Brâncuși's work, the idea of infinity, here suggested by the repetition of identical rhomboid shapes. This image shows the most famous of Brâncuși's Endless Columns, which was the version that served as the centerpiece of the tripartite sculptural memorial to fallen soldiers in World War I erected in Tirgu-Jiu, Romania in 1938.Read More ...

Wonderful Gibbs No. 57 Gypsy Wagon pull toy circa 1910 - 1920. This rare antique Gibbs double horse drawn wagon toy is in excellent condition and all original except for the replaced cotton fabric "canvas" on the wagon. The fabric covering on the wagon was replaced with appropriate cotton fabric and cotton string tie in the back to match what the original was. The horses also are in great shape with only a tiny piece of paper missing above one horse's ear and a tiny piece at the bottom of his haunches, scattered tiny ripples (not really noticeable unless you are looking it over very carefully) and a few tiny imperfections to the paper. The entire toy is in great shape with no rust or corrosion and minimal paint loss, most notably on the wheels. The toy overall measures approximately 19" long and 8 1/2" tall. If you collect early American toys, this would make a nice addition to your collection! PLEASE REVIEW ALL PHOTOS AND USE THE ENLARGE AND ZOOM FEATURES FOR THE BEST DESCRIPTION OF THIS EARLY AMERICAN GIBBS PULL TOY.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz says it's cool that the winner of the Miss America contest credits him with inspiring her.
Wentz graduated from Bismarck, North Dakota's Century High School one year ahead of Miss America Cara (KAHR'-uh) Mund.
Mund said after winning the title Sunday that "if Carson Wentz can do it, Miss North Dakota Cara Mund can become Miss America." The 23-year-old Brown University graduate is the first contestant from her state to win the crown.
Wentz said Wednesday the cool part of being a professional athlete is "showing that it can be done, no matter where you come from, no matter what it is that you're pursuing in life."
Wentz was drafted second overall by the Eagles last year out of North Dakota State.

Via offers the Vista-ready PT890By Justin Mann
In a press release issued yesterday, Via announced that the new Via PT890 for Pentium CPUs (similar to the 890 for Athlon 64 CPUs) is being released. Supporting all new Intel CPUs and the high-end 1066MHz FSB, it also comes equipped with S3's Chrome S25 or S27 series integrated video, lauded for their extremely low power consumption. Even though we've heard from Microsoft in the past that integrated video may not be "enough" for Vista, the press release assures that not only will the chipset with video be able to handle it, but take "full advantage" of what Vista has to offer.
Although the lack of Gigabit ethernet mentioned in the release is a bit disappointing, it does come with pretty much everything you need to setup a desktop system out of the box and likely will be at a good price point. As Vista approaches, many PC retailers are worried their existing solutions won't be able to handle Vista, though by the time January rolls around the availability of chipsets like this will be much higher.

We only travel in small groups, and in all our tours the focus is few people and personal service.
Super Jeeps with a maximum of six people
We travel by super jeeps and walking.
All clients must be wearing good shoes for walking in rough nature.
For super jeep tours in summer we recommend dressing according to weather. Remember that Icelandic weather can change suddenly, so warm and waterproof clothing is best to keep at hand.
On super jeep tours in winter you need to bring good winter clothing.
For yoga hikes, we recommend dressing according to weather while keeping in mind the that the weather can change. We recommend wearing several layers of clothes, as you can put on or remove clothes according to the weather.

Iceland is a North Atlantic island and a part of Europe. It lies about 800 km northwest of Scotland and 970 km west of Norway, and its northern coast is just below the Arctic Circle. From London, Reykjavík and Athens have the same distance.
Not at all! You can find frequent flights to Iceland from Europe's and North America's leading cities. Flight times from Europe are two to four hours.
Thanks to the Gulf Stream, Iceland isn´t as cold as it sounds. Temperatures are moderate year-round. Average July temperatures are around 10°C, and the north and east are often the warmest parts in the summer. Snow is not of too much inconvenience and only settles intermittently in the south but tends to stay longer in the north. However, you can find excellent winter skiing areas on higher ground outside many towns. Average January temperatures in Reykjavík, at around zero, are in fact higher than those in New York.
In the summer, light clothing is often all you need. But you should always be prepared for both cold and wet weather at all times of the year. The weather can be extremely changeable. Icelanders often say, "If you don´t like the weather, just wait 15 minutes." And always bring a bathing suit, whatever time of the year you visit. A favorite pastime is year-round outdoor swimming in many geothermal pools and lagoons, with a typical temperature of 25-28°C.
In wintertime, good winter clothing comes in handy for the colder days.
Quiet Nordic personality, friendly, highly educated, sophisticated, attractive, honest and very modern. Their ancestors were predominantly Norwegian, although some came from the British Isles. There are no Inuits in Iceland.
Most Icelanders speak fluent English. In fact, they welcome the opportunity – so you should never be shy about approaching an Icelander.
We accept all major credit cards. For example:
Visa, MasterCard, Maestro.
You can exchange all major currencies at the airport, banks and currency exchanges. Visa and MasterCard are accepted almost universally, and ATMs are not hard to find. While some businesses may take American Express, you can not count on every business allowing them.
It is not customary to donate tips in Iceland nor is it mandatory or expected. It is however appreciated if you wish to show your appreciation in that way.
In summer the sun barely sets, and it´s light round-the-clock at the peak of summer. In mid-winter, it is dark for most of the day. With only about four to five hours of daylight a day, you must make the most of it. In spring and autumn, however, there is more balanced daylight.
Iceland´s electrical standards are European (50Hz, 240 volts) so many North American electrical devices will require converters. Plugs are two-pin, so devices brought in from the UK and North America will need adapters.
Most European cell phones work on Iceland´s GSM network; North American ones use a different standard. But you can rent cell phones in Iceland. Iceland now has the highest rate of cell phones use in the world. Mobiles work in towns and on virtually all main travel routes.

That's my prediction.
He just did a live feed of Tacoma, in Tacoma makes me wonder if perhaps this might be the live single he mentioned earlier?! From what I heard of it, it sounded good!
That's my prediction.
Would be very strange to go back to Man Against Machine for a single (I know he did it with Wild Horses). I think this is being taped for the Live set in Anthology, which I think was mentioned in one of the interviews could end up being the next one that is released.
I predicted that in the live single thread. I think he wants a song on the next Live CD from Man Against Machine. Tacoma makes sense to be pushed as a single to promote the CD even if I wish he'd move on to a new song.
Oh, I would love that. It is my fave song of the album! <3
The sevens have aligned. It has begun...
It was a live feed from his Tacoma concert. I don't know if anybody captured or recorded it. However, I would guess it would be on YouTube for a little bit til 'the people' take them down.
If anyone finds a video of it please post!
FOUND IT! Thanks to one of our friends on twitter. He sounds fantastic on it and seems to be really focused on the vocal. I feel confident this is going on the album.
Its my least favorite song on Man Against Machine. I still love People Loving People, love Midnight Train, All American Kid, and Cold Like That, oh, and You Wreck Me. From Gunslinger, I would love to see at least one more single on the radio and thats She Really Loves You OR Honky-Tonk Somewhere. Least favorite song on Gunslinger is The Weekend. Even the song Sugarcane is a good song.
~"Choose to chance the rapids, and dare to dance the tide."~
~"Blood is thicker than water, but love is thicker than blood."~
-Garth Brooks
Wow really? Least favorite? For me it's second only to Midnight Train on that album.
Interesting! He did it a step or two lower than it is on the album. Sounds good!
I found it very interesting that they played a full band version of Fishin In the Dark. Really cool. The thing that was interesting to me is seeing the words of it up on the screen for a portion. Could that be the live single? I hope not. Everyone loves the original so much G's live version would go no where.
An objective Garth fan, with my own views...
I have a purpose
Made in His image
Accepted by Him
Given new life in Christ
Eternity with Him

We Clean
- Tile & Grout
- Natural Stone
- Amtico Flooring
- Karndean Flooring
- Safety Flooring
- Vinyl Flooring
- P.v.c Flooring
We clean all types of hard flooring, we also Diamond polish natural stone to give a long lasting shine, so if you want your hard floor given a new lease of life give S.O.R Clean a call, not only can we make your floor look great again but also remove all the abrasive soils so it lasts longer too.
Your hard floor gets a hard life from foot fall traffic and spillages, this contributes to your flooring not looking its best, your tiles and grout lines may have changed colour due to ingrained soil, we can bring them back to their best.
Natural stone tiles are porous this means they need to be sealed, the seal will wear out over time this means any spillages and grime will be absorbed by the tiles and the tile will lose its shine, we can Clean and re seal them. If they have lost their shine we can give them a long lasting shine by Diamond polishing. We can clean and seal tiles and natural stone even if they are installed outside.
We can also repair cracks and holes in some Natural stones with the use of fillers and diamond polishing. Travertine Tiles for example often have holes within the tile we can fill these holes and repair the cracks and often these repairs are almost invisible.
Natural stone fire places are a beautiful addition to any home but until now very hard to keep clean, we can clean and seal these for you.
Our non intrusive system will clean all your tiles and natural stone without creating a major disturbance within your home or work space.

EC Harris Family Fun Day
Global Event Management were contracted by a leading global asset management consultancy firm EC Harris to organise a family fun day as a 'thank-you' from management to staff and their families for all their hard work over the year.
After researching numerous venues, Global Event Management recommended the Joumana Beach at Jebel Ali Beach Resort. The space was transformed into an area of entertainment for all the family complete with face painting, arts and crafts, a number of inflatables as well as team building exercises for all ages.
The aim was to offer a number of outdoor activities with a sporting element for the whole family to get involved in. Raising funds for an International charity that EC Harris have been supporting in 2014, being an added incentive.
'We had great feedback from everyone – good location and format, the right amount of activities and good food.'

Rocky Reach Trail gate closures were originally created to offset landowner concerns that trail use would interfere with agricultural use. Gates were to be closed from 8:00 am to noon, April to July, to allow for agricultural activities.
This was to be reviewed within 24 months of the trail opening. Since the trail has now been open for more than 2 years, we as a community have the opportunity to voice our opinion to have the gate closure policy eliminated or to continue with the gate closures. There are many in our community who feel this gate closure policy has not been helpful to the landowners, the trail users, or the State Park employees.
Douglas County is now accepting public comment about the potential for eliminating the gate closures at the North and the South end of the Rocky Reach Trail.
The Complete the Loop Coalition supports the elimination of gate use for the Rocky Reach Trail. "No other Washington State Park trail has stringent requirements like these. Agricultural activity is more than 100 feet from the trail, wholesale storage of bee hives no longer exists in this area, and there has been no documented trespass or vandalism", says Mike Sorenson Complete the Loop Coalition board member.
Please notify Douglas County to give your opinion on whether they should eliminate Rocky Reach Trail gate closures.

The first is Sonya Shetty Cronin's revised dissertation (Florida State University), entitled Raymond Brown, 'The Jews', and the Gospel of John (LNTS 504; Bloomsbury/T&T Clark, 2015). As with many books that began their lives as dissertations, this is not the type of volume just anyone will be interested in buying. The subject matter is sufficiently narrow to limit this book to scholars and graduate students. However, the book is a solid historical study of Brown's evolution on the matter of hoi Ioudaioi in the Fourth Gospel. Shetty examines Brown's writings–both pastoral and academic–from 1960 to 1997, with several posthumous writings thrown in. The major argument of the book is that in his post-Vatican II context (which helped facilitate interfaith dialogue and sensitivity between Catholics and Jews), Brown evolved drastically over time in his view of "the Jews" in John. Cronin shows that in the 1960s, Brown started from a position that could potentially be called "anti-Jewish," but which, at the very least, lacked nuance. By the time of his untimely death in 1998, Brown had reached a nuanced stand that helped him (and his readers) stay aware of and avoid potential anti-Judaism in teaching and preaching John. The book is interesting and fairly well-written but shows the signs (especially in its redundancies) of having been a dissertation. There is one thing that really drove me crazy about this book: Cronin misspells Frank Moloney's name (as Maloney) at least 15 times. Inasmuch as Moloney was the editor and shaper of Brown's most important posthumous publication (and a preeminent Johannine scholar in his own right), one would have thought such an important detail would not have been overlooked. Overall, however, I do feel that I can recommend this book for those interested in the subject matter. The idea for this study is interesting, especially for those interested in the legacy of one of America's most important Catholic biblical scholars.
The second book I want to mention is Cam von Wahlde's recent monograph, Gnosticism, Docetism, and the Judaisms of the First Century (LNTS 517; Bloomsbury/T&T Clark, 2015). This book aims to question various proposals about the cultural and religious backgrounds against which the Johannine literature appeared. Thus he discusses Gnosticism, Docetism, and various forms of Judaism before arriving at his own proposal. I have always been a big fan of von Wahlde's work, and as is the case with much of his previous work, I have really enjoyed reading this book, though I don't know for sure where I stand on some of his conclusions. As many readers will know, von Wahlde has a massive three-volume commentary on the Gospel and Epistles in which he provides a detailed proposal for understanding three different editions of the Gospel. The first portion of the book is largely dependent upon the reader's awareness and understanding of his previous proposal in the commentary (which he attempts to summarize briefly in the book's beginning). I do feel as though von Wahlde's argument is quite compelling in places but a bigger problem I have is with the speculative nature of much of the argument. (This concern is not so much rooted in mistrust of von Wahlde's work but in my own discomfort with many source- and redaction-critical proposals.) In order for you to buy his argument (which again, is often compelling), you must be able to understand and accept much of his construct of the stages of Fourth Gospel formation. At the end of the day, this is a very helpful volume in many ways. As one would expect, the breadth of von Wahlde's research and awareness of the pertinent issues is unassailable. This is definitely a must-have for those doing research in Johannine studies.
The third book I want to mention briefly is Stan Harstine's, A History of the Two-Hundred Year Scholarly Debate About the Purpose of the Prologue to the Gospel of John (Edwin Mellen, 2015). This is admittedly a long title for such a short book! In a brief 124 pages, Harstine looks at the history of scholarship on the Prologue (John 1:1-18) from the late 1700s up to the present day (Chapter One) with a specific focus on arguments about the relationship of the Prologue to the "gospel proper " (John 1:19-20:31). In Chapter Two he identifies eight central concerns raised by scholars over the centuries, offering "pro" and "con" for each. Then in Chapter Three he presents his own concern for an overlooked issue: themes common to both the Prologue and the gospel proper. He concludes the book (Chapter Four) with an example of how his unaddressed concern might look in gospel exegesis. He calls this a "helical reading," which utilizes elements of both synchronic and diachronic approaches to exegesis. Harstine has done good work in pointing us to a discussion that needs further examination. The express purpose of the book is to provide information that will serve as a starting point for future dialogue. Since the book contains material that has not been pulled together elsewhere, I think he is successful in this aim.
Next up is James Barker's recent offering, John's Use of Matthew (Fortress, 2015). I just received this book in my campus mailbox last week. I intend to provide a full-scale review in due course. I really like what I have read from James, so I'm looking forward to seeing his full argument. Since I have only looked at the book, I have nothing substantive to say at this time, though I do want to make a comment about the book's layout. I have said this in recent weeks and I've heard others express the same sentiment: what is up Fortress Press's new spacing and fonts? They are unattractive to say the least. (I say this not only as one who regularly reads and reviews books in the field, but also as one who is currently working on a book with Fortress!)

the letters were destroyed by a water flood, so we now have no records.

"Einstein is a classic example of a highly creative and highly gifted individual that did not do well in traditional school environments."
That is a quote in a research paper by Kyung Hee Kim, PhD, Associate Professor of Educational Psychology at The College of William and Mary.
KH Kim thinks "the cause of the underachievement of many gifted and talented students may be their creativity, which tends to clash with traditional school environments.
"Many gifted underachievers show potential for high levels of creativity and many of the characteristics reported for gifted underachievers are similar to those of highly creative individuals."
She notes research that highly creative students "experience difficulty in traditional school environments."
For example, one study of 400 eminent creative individuals (by Goertzel and Goertzel in 1960) found that sixty percent had serious school problems.
Kim writes that Albert Einstein "hated strictly regimented academics and excelled only with self-study or in nontraditional environments."
[Einstein expressed an insight on non-conforming when he said, "Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are even incapable of forming such opinions."
From my post Einstein and other non-conformists. Also quoted in my book Developing Multiple Talents.]
Kim explains further, "Gifted underachievers tend to be particularly sensitive to teachers who are critical, rigid, officious, and unsympathetic.
"There are many teachers who have negative attitudes toward gifted students who resist conformity… Gifted students tend to be sensitive to negative social feedback, which contributes to emotional conflict and the development of chronic underachievement."
From Underachievement and Creativity: Are Gifted Underachievers Highly Creative? [PDF], by Kyung Hee Kim.
That "negative social feedback" may include bullying – see my posts:
Lily Cole and gifted kids being bullied
Traumatic Childhood, Creative Adult.
In a later paper, Dr. Kim and her co-author declare that research indicates "there might be a relationship between students' behavior problems and creativity among underachievers.
"This relationship was recognized by Torrance (1981b, 2000) when he expressed concern that creative behaviors are punished and discouraged by parents and teachers who perceive creative behavior as inconvenient and difficult to manage.
"This can lead to the child's unwillingness to be creative and eventually to underachievement and rigid non-adaptive responses in the school environment."
From The relationship between creativity and behavior problems among underachievers, [PDF] by Kyung Hee Kim and Joyce VanTassel-Baska.
See more papers and other material on her site Welcome to the World of Creativity by Dr. Kim!
Dr. Kim, in 2010, published her study "The Creativity Crisis," in which she showed the United States has been experiencing a decline in creativity since 1990, based on scores of people from young children to adults.
See my post (with video) Are We Losing Creative Thinking Ability?
Her book: The Creativity Challenge – KH Kim explains how to better understand and improve our creative thinking and expression.

Self-esteem and achievement
Marilyn J. Sorensen, PhD, author of the book Breaking the Chain of Low Self-Esteem, says "People with low self-esteem generally find themselves at one of the extremes of achievement, either as an overachiever or as an underachiever.
"Some take the road of continually channeling their energies into attempts to receive recognition, approval, and affirmation, and become highly successful in their careers and educational endeavors; they are driven; they are 'overachievers.' Others slink back in fear, never realizing their skills or talents."
From my post Creative But Insecure.
~ ~ ~
Sensitive teens
Elaine Aron, PhD addressed teens in her newsletter: "You may score lower than others [on the sensitivity self-test] and still be highly sensitive. This is because adolescence is the time in life when people born with this trait are often the least sensitive, especially to noise and having to do more than one thing at once…
"Also, there are as many baby boys born who are highly sensitive as there are girls. By your age most males score lower on the self-test. The reason is obvious. It is so difficult to be highly sensitive in this culture if you are a man. So most sensitive men and boys are trying to hide their sensitivity."
From my post Lost in our reactions – the high sensitivity personality.
The photo at top is from one of my favorite movies: The Breakfast Club (1985) written and directed by John Hughes, starring Molly Ringwald, Emilio Estevez, Judd Nelson, Anthony Michael Hall, and Ally Sheedy. The story "follows five teenagers (each a member of a different high school clique) as they spend a Saturday in detention together and come to realize that they are all deeper than their respective stereotypes." [Wikipedia]
Of course, all of this is not just about students and younger people – see my posts:
Adult underachievement – not living up to our high potential – includes video excerpt from the 90 Minute Webinar Presentation by SENG (Supporting Emotional Needs of the Gifted) "Understanding and Treating Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar Disorder and Underachievement in Gifted Children, Adolescents and Young Adults" – presented by Jerald Grobman, M.D.

16:8 Intermittent Fasting: How To Banish Cravings With This Science-Backed Diet
Skipping meals has gone from a taboo thing we avoided at all costs to a legit way of eating, thanks to increasing scientific research (not to mention, loads of celebrity and medical expert endorsements) supporting the benefits of intermittent fasting.
Not to be confused with traditional dieting, which revolves around counting calories and forbidden foods, intermittent fasting (IF) is an eating schedule where you go without food for a certain amount of time—and science has its back. As well as helping you lose weight, studies show that intermittent fasting can curb cravings, improve blood sugar control, lower inflammation, delay aging, and lower risk of disease. As if that weren't enough, it's also been linked to better sleep, more diverse gut bacteria, and improved mood.
Given the slew of benefits, it may not be a question of whether you should try intermittent fasting but rather which type of intermittent fasting to try. There's the 5:2 model (eat normal calories five days a week and only 500 calories the other two days); alternate-day fasting (one day you eat normally, the next you eat very little); OMAD (as in "one meal a day"); and then there's 16:8 fasting, which limits food to an eight-hour eating window each day.
How the 16:8 fasting schedule works.
The 16:8 diet plan comes with all the benefits of fasting (plus, recent research finds that it may lower blood pressure), and proponents plug its built-in flexibility and ease to follow. Instead of calorie counting and changing your eating behavior each day, there's consistency. Perhaps even better, you pick the eating window.
So what should that eating window be? "Whatever works best for your schedule," says Will Cole, D.C., functional medicine expert, mbg Collective member, and best-selling author of Ketotarian. If you can't live without breakfast, slot your food earlier in the day (8 a.m. to 4 p.m.). If you prefer an early dinner, eat in the middle of the day (11 a.m. to 6 p.m.). If you're someone who regularly goes out with friends for late dinners, schedule your eating hours later in the day (1 p.m. to 9 p.m.).
Contrary to popular opinion (and moms everywhere), there are no rules around how many meals you have to squeeze in or whether or not you have to include breakfast. In fact, no data actually proves breakfast makes you healthier or weigh less. "Skipping breakfast is completely OK," assures Cole. "Since fasting decreases your hunger hormone ghrelin, you'll be able to stay satisfied well into lunch."
Time to get started with 16:8 fasting.
Once you decide on a general eating window, and talk to a professional to make sure IF is right for you, it's time to jump in—but not necessarily all in. "If you haven't fasted before, going straight into a long period of fasting can be a shock to your body, so I would suggest gradually increasing your fasting time," says Cole. Some experts suggest starting just a couple of days a week and working your way up, while others recommend gradually increasing your fasting window from 12 to 14 to 16 hours. "It's important to listen to your body and increase your fasting hours as you feel like you can," he adds.
Even though food is off limits during fasting hours, non-caloric drinks and exercise are not. Research says they could even stave off hunger. For liquids, that includes water, black coffee, and unsweetened tea (just skip the cream and sugar). What's more, exercising in a fasted state can supercharge your body's fat-burning potential—but again, listen to your body. "If your body is used to fasting, it shouldn't affect your energy levels when it comes to exercising," says Cole. "However, every person is different, so some people may not be able to handle exercising during the fasting window and may do better exercising some time after their eating window or right before so they can replenish their energy right after."
16:8 meal plans to get you through the day.
Now for the food. Yes, 16:8 fasting gives you the freedom to consume what you want during the eating window, but it's not an excuse to go pancake-pizza-Pringles wild.
"During your periods of eating, you need to stick with a clean, whole foods diet," says Cole. "Since some of the benefits of fasting include reduced inflammation, loading up on junk food during your eating window can perpetuate this inflammation. And with inflammation being the underlying contributing factor in almost all modern-day health problems, this is something you definitely want to keep under control."
That means yes to clean proteins, healthy fats, and carbohydrates from whole food sources. Skip the ultra-processed foods and drive-thru; just don't skip the focus on delicious. With less time spent on food prep and planning, it may even make you more creative in the kitchen.
Here's an idea of what to eat (and when to eat it) on a 16:8 fasting diet, depending on when you start eating for the day:
Early eating window
8 a.m.: egg and veggie scramble
12 p.m.: apple and almond butter
4 p.m.: chicken and veggie stir fry
Evening decaf tea
Midday eating window
Morning black coffee or tea
11 a.m.: banana peanut butter smoothie
2 p.m.: avocado toast with pistachios
4 p.m.: dark-chocolate-covered almonds
6 p.m.: turkey meatballs & tomato sauce over whole wheat (or zucchini noodle) pasta
Late eating window
Morning black coffee or tea
1 p.m.: blackberry chia pudding
4 p.m.: carrots and hummus or guacamole
9 p.m.: grilled salmon, vegetables, and quinoa

In October 1991, Bob Gilbertson an NHRA funny car driver began production and sale of a unique, aluminum air tank after the racing community had expressed an overwhelming demand. Drawing on many years of expertise in the manufacture of industrial aluminum tanks, he developed a lightweight, portable air supply that was corrosion-free.
To understand what makes the Trick Tank so unique, you have to examine the only alternative ... painted steel! Steel tanks are heavy, they corrode easily and carry a suggested discard date which is clearly stamped onto the top of each tank. Why would you have to throw it away? The air fill source generally contains condensation which eats away at the tank's inner steel walls. Over time, the walls become gradually thinner until the tank develops rust holes and will no longer contain the air. The Trick Tank is manufactured from the same welding and test specifications as are set out for military tanks.
Just a few of the Trick Tank's uses:
- Auto/Truck/Military/Aircraft/Camper/RV Tires
- Bicycle/Motorcycle/Racecars/Off-Road Vehicles
- Emergency & Municipal Vehicles (Firetrucks, Police Cars & Wreckers)
- Courier & Delivery Services (FexEx, UPS, etc.
