Please click on images to enlargeSundons Gift
"Bernie" arrived at the Nagambie stables as a 4 1/2 year old, who was a seven start, unruly, non winning maiden in his native New Zealand. He has since gone onto become one of Australasias greatest ever trotters.
The Sundon gelding possess both brilliance and stamina and has one from in front as well as from behind. He has shown his amazing versatility by being able to win at Group 1 level from 1 to 2 mile journeys. No less than 18 of his wins have been at Group level including 6 Grand Circuit victories and back to back Inter Dominion wins. The only Australian trained trotter to achieve this feat.
With a bankroll now in excess of $1.2 million dollars, he is the richest trotter ever in Australia and the second richest trotter of all time in this part of the world. He has also been voted Australian Trotter of the year for an amazing 3 years running. When he was voted Victorian horse of the year in 2010, he became only the 5th trotter to win this prestigious award in its 32 year history.
Let Me Thru
A strapping son of super sire, Muscles Yankee, Jeffrey as he is known around the stable has gone from strength to strength since his winning debut as a late 3 year old. Winning his first Group 1 race at only his 4th race start was a sign of things to come. His 3 year old season culminated with a win in the Australasian Breeders Crown and was susequently named 3 year old trotter of the year. His star continued to rise as a 4 year old winning the Group 1 Sires Final and, as was the case as a 3 year old, his season finished with a brilliant win in the Australasian Breeders Crown Final making him a part of an exclusive club for dual Breeders Crown winners. An amazing third dual Breeders Crown winner produced by the stable.
As a 5 year old he has continued on his winning way with a win in the Ouyen Trotters Cup at his first outing against the older horses. He then stepped up to Grand Circuit level and at only his 4th start as a 5 year old was successful in the Australasian Trotting Championship beating the best trotters from both sides of the Tasman, At his next start he won the V L Dullard Cup also at Grand Circuit level. His first 23 starts have netted him 16 wins, 3 placings and over $360,000 in stakes.
Developing into the complete package as a racehorse, Let me Thru is one of the most exciting prospects on the trotting horizon.
Kyvalley Road
Purchased by Chris Lang as a yearling in New Zealand, Kyvalley Road was one of the best young trotters ever produced in this country.
The Lindy Lane gelding won seven out of nine starts as a two-year-old and seven from nine as a three-year-old and was adjudged Australian 2YO Trotter of the Year in 2002 and 3YO Trotter of the Year in 2003.
When he captured the Australasian Breeders Crown at Bendigo in August 2003 Kyvalley Road become the first trotter to win the Crown at both 2 and 3. Among his other major successes were the Victoria Trotters Derby, Tatlow Memorial, The Redwood and The Holmfield.
After his three-year-old campaign, Kyvalley Road's career was interrupted by injury which prevented him from reaching his full potential and, despite being a limited training routine, he was still able to match it with the best square-gaiters in commission.
As an older horse he won such important events as the John Slack Memorial (Ballarat), Connelly Crystal Bucket (Echuca) and the Cobram Trotters Cup.
Kyvalley Road retired with the enviable record of 27 starts for 20 wins, four placings and $256,373 in stakes.
A Breeders Crown champion and Australian record holder, the four-year-old Skyvalley is rated as one of the most exciting, young trotters in the country.
The bold striding son of Muscles Yankee and the Group winning mare Chiola's Lass won twice and was placed in the Group 2 Tatlow as a two-year-old.
However, as a three-year-old, Skyvalley produced a string of outstanding performances at Group level culminating in his win in the $102,000 Breeders Crown final at Bendigo to announce himself on the big stage.
In winning the Group 1 final, Skyvalley became the fastest-ever Australian trotter over the 2100 metre journey, rating an unbelievable 1:58.9.
He won six races on end at one stage and qualified for the 2009 Inter Dominion Grand Final at Moonee Valley at four years by beating all but top Kiwi mare One Over Kenny in the semi-final.
A grand looking individual, Skyvalley would make an ideal sire prospect at the end of his racing days.
National Interest
Bred along pacing bloodlines, National Interest was the trail blazer for the Chris and Sharon team.
Racing from two to eight years, the Torado Hanover gelding was among the top bracket of trotters in the late 1990's, capturing feature races in Victoria, South Australia and New South Wales.
His major successes were the V. L. Dullard Cup, Scotch Notch Memorial (twice), Inter Dominion Consolation, Kilmore Trotters Cup, SA Trotters Cup (twice), George Gath, SA Trotters Derby and the NSW Gold Coronet.
Noted for his big finishing 'kick', National Interest contested three Inter Dominion Championship Grand Finals and three Australasian Trotters Championships.
He won a total of 33 races – including 19 on metropolitan tracks - and $350,863 in stakes.
A chestnut daughter of Wagon Apollo, Jauriol took all before her in a brilliant juvenile career.
Jauriol had 10 starts as a two-year-old for seven wins and a third. Her prizemoney earnings of $83,060 set a record for a two-year-old trotting filly in Australia.
Feature events won by her at two were the Vicbred Super Sires, Tatlow Stakes and The Redwood.
Eight wins and five placings from 16 starts for $88,739 prizemoney indicated the supremacy Jauriol displayed in her three-year-old season. She completed the NSW Trotters Derby and Oaks double at Harold Park, won the Victoria Oaks at Moonee Valley and the Geelong and Shepparton Trotters Classics.
She was named Australian Trotter of the Year at both 2 and 3.
Jauriol later competed with distinction in open company, capturing such important events as the John Slack Memorial (Ballarat), Cobram Trotters Cup and the Matchmaker Mile (Maryborough) in a new lifetime mark of 1:59.9.
In all, Jauriol had 64 starts for 22 wins and 19 placings and $248,824 in stakes.
Galleons Sunset
Entrusted to Chris Lang in December 2007, the Kiwi gelding Galleons Sunset provided the Nagambie horseman with the first of his successive Inter Dominion triumphs at Moonee Valley in March 2008.
Driven by En Zedder Derek Balle, the six-year-old Sundon gelding led from start to finish in the $250,000 Grand Final as a 31 to 1 outsider.
Reeling off a 58.1 seconds last half, Galleons Sunset was untroubled to defeat Will Trapper, My Rhythm Of The Night, One Over Kenny, Whatsundermykilt, Viva La Fever and co.
Galleons Sunset was placed in Lang's charge because of his grand record in the top trotting events in Australia and his preference to the Melbourne way of racing.
Shes An Image
The "Pocket Rocket " as we called her around the stables, "Immy" joined our stable at the beginning of her 3 year old season and what she lacked in physical size, she made up for with her big heart and will to win.
As a 3 year old she was undefeated against her own sex, winning the only two Group 1's for fillies at the time, namely the NSW and Victorian Trotters Oaks Finals. She also won the Princess of Speed Final and finished the season with 7 wins and 2 seconds from 11 starts.
As an open class mare she went on to win many city class races including a heat of the Breed For Speed Gold series where she took her lifetime mark of 1.57.4. She ended her career having had 56 starts for 20 wins, 10 seconds, 5 thirds and stakes of $233,000. She now begins the next phase of her career in the breeding barn and is sure to be as big a success there.
Lester Scot
A former pacer from the Riverina district, Lester Scot became one of the leading trotters in Australia in the early 2000's.
Trained by Sharon Lang, the gelding won his first race as a four-year-old and gradually worked his way through the classes to a TM5 mark.
He won four races at Moonee Valley as well as the Bendigo and Echuca Trotters Cups.
Lester Scot contested two Inter Dominion Grand Finals, finishing fifth in 2001 at Albion Park and unplaced at Moonee Valley in 2000, and was twice placed in ID heats.
A rugged stayer, Lester Scot won over the marathon 3020 metres trip at Moonee Valley.

Occasionally a company creates the perfect storm when trying to promote their product or service via a new technique or channel, and inevitably becomes the proto-example used for years to illustrate how to get it right.
The recent success of DIY website provider Moonfruit may very well be the latest of these uber-case-studies. Their recent competition on Twitter increased traffic to their website by over 600% and got their brand over 30k followers on Twitter in a matter of days.
I won't re-hash the story – several people have already done a great job recounting what happened. What I wanted to explore is specifically why this campaign worked so well and if it can it teach us anything that might be applicable to other campaigns.
Trending Topics
The campaign inadvertently launched at the perfect time, as it was around the time that trending topics were given prime real estate on everyone's Twitter side bar.
Coupled with the death of the King of Pop (Michael Jackson), this meant that users were paying close attention to trending topics, which means that something which gains enough momentum to become a trending term was more likely to spread virally.
Although the appeal of Twitter is growing and usage is spreading into all demographics there is still a 'typical' Twitter user. Many of this 'typical' group will have some nostalgia for Moonfruit's glory days. I certainly did due to my early websites were hosted by Moonfruit. They were largely focused around me and my mate's mountain biking stunts and didn't get much traffic, but my fond memories of Moonfruit certainly encouraged me to spread the meme on the first day. I'm pretty sure this was a motivation for at least some other of the initial seeds.
Apple Effect
This isn't the first competition to spread virally on Twitter. In my whitepaper on Twitter I mentioned Namecheap who'd had huge success with a Twitter competition, It led to a twenty percent increase in sales. But why did this giveaway reach so many more people? I think the apple effect has a part to play. Giving away a Mac Book Pro is perfectly aligned with the Twitter community.
The most appealing laptop from a company favoured by the users of the site is almost a no-brainer as a prize. The fact that the prize wasn't a product of the company also must have helped. Many of the competitions that have been successful on Twitter have been companies giving away their own products or services, and though appealing in many cases, it probably isn't perceived as quite so generous.
Ease of entry
One of the first rules of viral marketing is making your 'thing' as easy to share as possible. Just cutting and pasting a hashtag is about as easy as it gets, and Moonfruit didn't even make you follow their account which would have been a barrier to entry. However lots of people did choose to follow them.
Success breeds success
I'm not sure whether this was a deliberate policy but as soon as the campaign got any traction there was a lot of industry coverage of the success of their promotion. The coverage of how well they were doing won't have done any harm in spreading the idea further. It's an illustration of how in some circumstances the coverage you get with the industry press can justify a strategy regardless of whether it is a 'true' success with its target audience.

I got this lovely new jacket from Pull & Bear. I really love it! In a way I feel cool with this jacket it's quite long and sort of baggy I just love it! And it fits well with my beloved ASOS jeans! We were in a park and our camera's battery died so we couldn't take the full length size picture but I will definitely wear this combo again. Oh, and about my hair. I kinda like it on the side like in 80's for me it's feels quite cool. I do like clean pony tail look but I love 80's messy on a side too.

The measurement is taken from 30cm (11.8in) from the inner edge for lane 1 if there is a raised border or 20cm (7.87in) if there is no border. All other lane distances are measured 20cm (7.87in) from the white line.
LANE WIDTH: 1.22m (1.33yds) wide and no more than 1.25m (1.37yds). When the inner edge is a chalk line: lane 1 measures 1.12m (1.22yds). The measurement being taken from the outside edge of one marking line to the outside edge of the next line, going outwards from the track side of the inner kerb. All semicircular curves will be equal.
STAGGERS: Lanes 2-8 measurements are taken along a 20cm (7.87in) line from inside edge of each lane. On the diagram, the staggers for 100m (109.36yds) and 300m (328.08yds) apply only when the straights are 84.39m (92.29yds) and must be adjusted for tracks of other proportions.

Ever wanted to know how to inject a bit of nostalgia into the interior of your home without compromising on contemporary aesthetics? This is a modernisation project that transformed an apartment set in a preserved 1940s building. The project, located on Hen Boulevard, Tel Aviv, was sent to us by interior designer Galya Ben Asher from Israel. First, we're struck with a monochromatic decor treatment but the colour story does not end here. A blue and blush colour combo breaks through, fashionably nostalgic of the time that saw the building in its beginnings. A peppering of 1940's furniture silhouettes add to the subtle throwback effect.
Designer: Amir Navon, Galya Ben Asher, Moran Adir & Michal Gutman
The compact apartment follows an open plan arrangement whereby the kitchen views directly over the dining spot and into the lounge. Beyond this lies a small garden balcony decorated with trailing plants. Besides the exterior greenery, we see our first colour emerging in this space; the placement of soft pink items form a visual triangle, whilst the wall art hints at our next stop on the colour wheel.
The layout provides an ideal social space with plenty of opportunities to sit, chat and eat communally. The consideration throughout this project was to cater for the homeowners ideal needs in terms of practical facilities, as well as to create the right energy. All of this had to come without compromising on the overall living space, or the crispness of the intended design.
Each of the two coffee tables strike a chord with 1940s design style, as does the silhouette of the dining room pendant light. The small decorative vase found on the round coffee table is a pretty little copper piece. More sprinklings of the metal accent can be seen placed subtly in other areas of the home too.
Over in the kitchen the second hue strikes unapologetically. A swathe of strong blue units cut across the width of the room, creating a backdrop and central sweep. The bright units are an unfussy handle-free and flat fronted design. The only decoration being a couple of small plants situated on the central countertop at each side of the sink.
The dark kitchen sink and faucet match the black dining table and chairs, in addition to the lounge picture frame and coffee tables.
Ice white kitchen worktops reflect the pure white walls. A pink teapot decorates the window sill and pulls the accent hue through from the lounge.
The design challenge for this home was to turn the apartment into a contemporary one whilst preserving its charm and special character. The color selection made works alongside elements of iron and glass, and with wooden floors.
To maintain the simplicity and modernity of the new apartment scheme, a bulk of the homeowners storage needs are met by tall built-in units that run the length of the home entryway.
Another piece of colourful artwork can be found in the master bedroom. Here the framed work is the only relief from a monochrome palette. A symmetrical split unit design hugs the bed, where a black recess forms an unusual runaround design at headboard height.
Bed linen is white and plain, as is drapery at the internal window that draws back to reveal the open plan living area on the other side of interior glass.
The exterior bedroom window is actually a set of french doors that allow an exit out onto the main balcony. The black bed runner forms the middle of three visual stripes that run the length of the room, the first being the black interior window ledge, and the third being the deep closet recess stripe.
Just outside of the french doors from the bedroom there is a small indoor area where one might sit for a moment and read or enjoy a drink out of direct sunshine or rain. A small copper pendant light anchors a green chair and wooden side table in position. An identical copper vase to the one seen on the living room coffee table sweetly decorates the spot. The flooring runs continuous with that inside the living and sleeping areas.
A second bedroom scheme returns to the colour combination of the living area, with a blue-grey wall and a blush bed throw. The bedside unit is a wooden triangular tabletop design synonymous with 1940s design, beneath a simple wall sconce. Another colourful moment of art decorates the white wall flanking the double bed.
The home office area has a unit style in keeping with the closets found in the master bedroom. These are teamed with a pale pink desk chair that, although dainty, completely adjusts the strong black and white scheme, adding softness and femininity.
One singular piece of pink accent furniture lifts the bathroom scheme too. A simple wall mounted vanity unit is coated in blush beneath a rectangular basin.
Black faucets and bottle trap match the bathroom mirror and floor tiles.
A second bathroom has a reversed scheme. Here we find white floor tiles instead of black, and a dark shower where the first was white. A strip of white LEDs provide mood lighting inside the shower cubicle. The boxing in of the pipes on the left hand side has been made tall, creating a picture ledge. Art frames, mirror and vanity unit in this room are all basic black to provide sharp contrast against white surroundings.

The Ford Transit Connect is the automaker's small cargo van and passenger wagon that slots below the full-size Ford Transit (which replaced the dated E-Series van). The passenger variant of the Transit Connect is practical, but smaller and less premium compared to full-size entries in the minivan segment.
Although the first-generation Ford Transit Connect hit European streets in the early 2000s, the small delivery van didn't arrive in the U.S. until its mid-cycle refresh for the 2010 model year. In our First Drive, we noted that the small Transit Connect was aimed at "catering services, flower delivery, home maid services, fishmongers, and even kayak, bike, and surf shops" that didn't require the payload of the larger Econoline van.
The small front-drive van was based on the same platform as the first-gen Ford Focus. Power came from a 2.0-lier four-cylinder mated to a four-speed automatic transmission. Although early models were sold only as long-wheelbase cargo vans, Ford added a Transit Connect XLT Premium Wagon with two-row seating for five, opening side windows, and sound insulation.
"Yes, you can live in a Ford Transit Connect, technically. But I recommend it only out of necessity," Carlos Lago said after spending a week living in a Ford Transit Connect cargo van. "Your business may be picking up; you may have an IPO ready. But remember these, motivational speaker Matt Foley's words: "Well, lah-dee-freaking-dah!" The bottom can drop out. You may end up living in a van. Let his cry be a warning to you all."
The Latest Generation
The second-generation Ford Transit Connect arrived in the U.S. for the 2014 model year riding on an all-new chassis. Unlike the boxy first-gen model, the new Transit Connect features more styling flair. The newer van also faces fresh competition including the Nissan NV200/Chevrolet City Express and Ram ProMaster City.
Several configurations are offered including cargo van or passenger wagon variants. The Transit Connect comes in two wheelbase lengths, two engine options, and five trim levels. Short wheelbase wagons seat five, while long wheelbase versions seat seven. Power comes from either a 2.5-liter (169 hp, 171 lb-ft) I-4 or available turbocharged 1.6-liter I-4 (178 hp, 184 lb-ft). Both engines are mated to a six-speed automatic transmission.
We were impressed by the 2014 Ford Transit Connect Titanium Wagon LWB in our First Test. Although the 2.5-liter engine in the passenger wagon wasn't as fast as the EcoBoost engine in the cargo van, it was fun to drive: "The differences between our long-wheelbase Transit Connect Titanium Wagon and more traditional minivans are readily apparent where the rubber meets the road. Simply put, the Transit Connect is fun — and not just for a minivan. The Ford feels sporty and light on its feet, much like the Focus it's based on."
Why You'd Consider One
The Ford Transit Connect cargo van offers several combinations for the small business owner, and the Ford Transit Connect Wagon offers passenger and cargo space for less than the cost of a traditional minivan.
Why You'd Look Elsewhere
The Transit Connect is facing tough competion from Nissan and Ram.

The Law Offices of Brandon Bernstein, LLC, advises prospective clients on the latest updates to Maryland divorce laws and separation statutes.
Bethesda, MD -- (ReleaseWire) -- 10/30/2015 -- The state of Maryland has passed an important change to its divorce and separation laws, with the update going into effect as of October 1st. The Maryland General Assembly voted to add a new grounds for absolute divorce in Maryland, that of Mutual Consent, and it's important to understand its impact.
Brandon Bernstein of the Law Offices of Brandon Bernstein, LLC, and a divorce attorney in Bethesda, Maryland wants to ensure that local residents are aware of the update and how it may have a bearing on their personal situations.
"Mutual Consent will have a positive impact on many individuals as they are going through separation and divorce," said Maryland divorce attorney Brandon Bernstein. "It eliminates the waiting period and allows couples without children to get a quicker fresh start, and to move on with less aggravation and hassle."
Via the new Mutual Consent stipulation in Maryland, parties in the state do not need to wait for the typical one year separation term before proceeding through with divorce. The key stipulation to be eligible for Mutual Consent is that it only applies when the parties do not have any children, currently minors, in common.
Further, the two parties must execute and submit a written settlement agreement that resolves all issues regarding alimony and distribution of property. If neither party files to set aside that settlement agreement, then both parties must appear before the court at the absolute divorce hearing, and the Mutual Consent grounds for divorce without the separation period can proceed.
This latest change in the state of Maryland is also a great example of how divorce laws and regulations can be fluid. That's why it's so crucial to stay up to date with the latest developments, and to work with an experienced divorce attorney who's well versed in local laws, and any recent changes or additions.
It's also essential to keep in mind that divorce and separation laws may be widely different from one state to the next. This update to Maryland's separation and divorce laws only affects residents of the state.
Anyone who may be going through a difficult period right now and is facing the prospect of separation or divorce is encouraged to learn more by visiting BrandonBernsteinLaw.com, or calling the Law Offices of Brandon Bernstein at 240-395-1418 to schedule a free consultation.

In public, I get asked this question a lot: "Where do you get your ideas?" For the longest time I would answer "whatever makes me laugh," but to be honest, I never truly knew. Until yesterday that is…
After having a deeply emotional day, I started looking for something to do with all of that emotion. As an aside, I firmly believe that emotion has to be expressed and dealt with, otherwise bad stuff starts happening in our body, mind, and soul.
I had been stuck coming up with another story for the "Nuts" family to go through, so in my sadness and frustration I linked the two problems together and asked this question: what would Wally do with this emotion? (Wally being the eight-year-old squirrel at the center of "Nuts".) Just like magic, the story started to manifest.
So to answer the question of where stories come from, the reality is that, like so many other things in our lives, stories come from emotion. That problem of what to do with our emotions, how to express them, why anyone cares, is the basis for every writer that put pen to paper- even if they don't consciously know the reason they are driven to write.
Now I have a question for you: How are you using your emotion?
"Nuts" volume 2 will be out next month, but if you can't wait, you can check out the original by clicking here.

With Fallout 4's announcement in the past week setting gamers' minds ablaze, here's my view on what the series should do next in Fallout 4, and what it should learn from it's predecessors.
1. New Game Engine! This is almost certain to happen, but the game engine was the only thing that held back Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas – slow frame rates, frequent glitches and irritating crashes dogged two otherwise brilliant games – there is reason to hope though, Skyrim's game engine was a 100-fold improvement over Oblivion's, hopefully Fallout 4's will be a similar leap forward.
2. Improved DLC: The downloadable content for Fallout 3 and New Vegas was very hit and miss, ranging from the brilliant (Old World Blues) to the flawed yet challenging (Lonesome Road, Broken Steel) to the bloody awful (Operation: Anchorage, Mothership Zeta, Dead Money) the new Fallout will hopefully have DLC which matches the high quality of the main game.
3. Returning Classics: The new game is set in Boston, Massachusetts, a location mentioned in Fallout 3, so hopefully we will have some characters/enemies/institutions from that game (i.e. The Enclave, The Brotherhood of Steel and Three Dog the DJ. And Deathclaws. F***ing Deathclaws!) returning. Hell, a DLC section that takes us back to the Capital Wasteland one last time would be epic and perfect fan-service…
4. Multiple factions: Fallout New Vegas had several advantages over Fallout 3 – it's faction system, multi-sided endings and the fact the whole game built (with elements from side quests and main quests proving important) to a satisfying conclusion with the suitably epic battle of Hoover Dam (compared to the battle of the purifier in Fallout 3, which had no replay value) meant i preferred that game. Factions and multiple endings NEED to return in Fallout 4. Or if they don't at least make the final mission more fun and compelling.
5. No Multiplayer: Fallout is a classic single-player game. Don't tag multiplayer on just for the hell of it, co-op could potentially work but online game modes would be a BIG mistake. Just make the main game as good as possible. That's all that matters.
6. Karma's a bitch: While New Vegas' faction system worked wonders, it's use of the Karma system was a definite step back from Fallout 3's. There was no evil decision comparable to blowing up Megaton, no good decision as heroic as saving kids from slavers at Paradise Falls, and worst of all no consequence depending on your alignment (except one follower who wouldn't follow an evil Courier). Fallout 4 will hopefully take inspiration from Fallout 3 or perhaps Mass Effect and give you some meaningful Karmic decisions that have an effect on how the game plays out.
7. Companions, Enemies and Main Characters: New Vegas generally handled these better, companions were more interesting and the villains were less black and white, with Caesar, Mr. House and Ulysses all variously grey characters. The Courier's interactions were good, especially his history/rivalry with Ulysses, the main villain of Lonesome Road. The Lone Wanderer from Fallout 3 did have a more emotional storyline though, and the Enclave were a very sinister enemy, so there's elements from both games that deserve inclusion. The main character spoke in the Fallout 4 trailer though, so might we be about to see a talking player character (even just in cutscenes)? Maybe's it's time.
Who knows what the game will actually include but I'll say one thing: i can't wait to find out!

Somewhere in the planning stages for our New York weekend excursion, we apparently forgot to mention that we might enjoy some shopping. So, alas, souvenirs were limited to what we might discover during any stop before we headed out on our trek through the city. Thankful to have discovered a tea shop, I knew there was something I might purchase quickly without holding up the group!
This little collection of bookmarks was spotted in the Ten Ren Tea shop we visited. Probably one of the best bargains in NYC at only 3 for $1.00, I now wish I had purchased more to share with friends! The front of each bookmark depicts a different tea type, Long gin, tung ting oolong, pouchong, white, and Pu-Erh along with a relevant photo. The reverse side of the bookmark features some information pertaining to the tea type, and brewing instructions or additional little hints and tips.
An informative sampling focused on herbs and tea with an occasional sprinkling of fairy dust and a glimpse into family activities too. The contributions to this blog are the combined efforts of the sisters of The Rosemary House and Sweet Remembrances.

The Six Day War was a transformative event in the history of Israel and the Jewish people. Surrounded on all its borders and threatened with annihilation, Israel emerged after just six days of battle with a decisive military victory against the combined armies of Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Iraq, and Lebanon. The victory ended the Jordanian occupation of parts of Jerusalem in which access to Jewish holy sites had been denied since the founding of the state two decades earlier. After two thousand years, Jews were once again able to pray at the Western Wall, their most holy site. For this reason, the 50th anniversary of the reunification of Jerusalem is a moment to celebrate.
It is also, however, a time to take a close look at the unresolved challenges resulting from the war which Israel grapples with to this day.
In light of this anniversary and the complex issues that surround it we are providing the following resources that both provide historical background on the war itself and the complex issues that continue as a result of the historic victory.

I think it was the Greek Archimedes who first discovered displacement. He was in the bath apparently and water flowed over the edges. After wondering for a while he called out "Eureka!" and leapt out of the bath. It might have been a bit of a surprise for anyone nearby.
To describe displacement – it is the quantity of a liquid that is displaced by a solid body when that solid body is placed in the liquid. The weight of the liquid displaced is equal to the reduction in weight of the solid body in the liquid.
So there we go, basically it is a very old world Greek who overflowed his bath and then ran around shouting about it.
Displacement is relevant to aquarists. When an aquarium is purchased it will be for a given gross volume but the aquarist cannot leave it at that. Whether the intention is to run a fish only aquarium or a reef aquarium, the actual volume of seawater – the net amount – will be less. This is because when the rock formation is placed in the aquarium it will displace seawater. The fact that the immersed rock is lighter by the weight of the seawater it has displaced is perhaps interesting but not really useful in this context.
With a fish only system the amount of rockwork is likely to be less than a reef (though not necessarily so). This is fortunate as fish only aquariums are stocked more heavily than reef aquariums – the amount of seawater displaced will be less, meaning there are more gallons for the fish. The reef aquarium usually has a sizeable rock structure so that the aquarist can place a considerable number of corals on it. This means more seawater is displaced, which in turn means there is less gallonage for any fish. This doesn't really matter as the reef aquarist needs to have a considerably lighter fish load to protect seawater quality. This seawater quality is particularly required by the corals.
Another point to bear in mind is that when constructing the new aquarium it is fine to fill with seawater in advance, but not fully so. If the rock structure is inert, that is, not live rock, then it can be constructed before any seawater goes in. Once construction is completed the aquarium can be fully filled. However, if the rockwork will be done with seawater in the aquarium the usual level that the seawater reaches initially is around 2/3rds. This of course is to allow for displacement, once the rocks are all in the level can be brought up fully.
A good thing to do when keeping a notebook with the aquarium (highly recommended) is to note the amount of seawater that goes in. Note the amount that goes in initially and when the rocks are in note the final amount also. Add the two amounts together and that is the net gallonage of the display aquarium. If there is a sump the same thing can be done, although in this case it could be displacement by a deep sand bed (DSB), heaters etc. Add this to the display aquarium net amount and that is the net volume of the whole system.
Knowing the net volume is useful if medications or supplements are to be added. These are normally administered at X amount for Y gallons. It is also useful when stocking with fish in both reef and fish only systems.
When a new coral that is attached to a rock is added, make sure the seawater is at the correct level before putting the coral and rock in. When it is in, remove the excess seawater and note the amount. Remove this amount from the noted net volume of the system.

Hello Friends,
I apologize for my absence in blogging but life got busy after we came back from our trip. I had to organize myself again and transition to my life.
There was so many events in my life since my last post that I don't even know where to start. Please let the pictures tell the stories…
My cousin's wedding: we had a blast till a daylight. You can always count on the hospitality and lots of dancing at the Polish wedding.
We finished 2 days of celebration with fire pit; I didn't do it for years, it was a very relaxing and a perfect way to end our stay there.
We left the next day to Gdansk (Tom's hometown). I love this city: it has the history and charm.
The Dominican market was taking place -it's the best time to visit the city during summer time.
The next day we were flying back to Canada. I always feel a little sad when I am leaving my homeland…but I think it's natural to feel this way. On the other hand i could come back to my routines, my home, my dog (that I missed so much).
I missed my food that's for sure; my beautiful running trails and training sessions with the dog
Also last weekend we had Marcus' first Bday party-what a boy!!!
and I think we are good now..
That's basically all in short. Hopefully you had a very good month as well. More to come in September. By then, take care


text: The UK's first Fraunhofer Center will be based at the University of Strathclyde, the university announced this week. The new Fraunhofer Centre for Applied Photonics will be a hub for industry-driven laser research and technology for health care, security, energy and transport, among other sectors. The new facility, funded by Fraunhofer, the university, the Scottish government, Scottish Enterprise and the Scottish Funding Council, will be based in Strathclyde's new Technology and Innovation Centre. The 269,000-sq-ft building costing 89 million pounds is expected to house 850 academics, researchers and project managers from the university and its industrial partners when it opens in 2014. The Centre for Applied Photonics is expected to be the model for more Fraunhofer research centers around the UK, and Fraunhofer will establish UK headquarters, Fraunhofer UK Research Ltd., at the university. Fraunhofer has more than 20,000 employees in more than 80 research units in Germany alone, and is establishing centers throughout Europe, Asia and North America, most recently at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Artist's rendering of the University of Strathclyde's Technology and Innovation Centre, now under construction. (Image: University of Strathclyde) "Fraunhofer has been eager, for some time, to create a research center in Glasgow in conjunction with Strathclyde," said Ulrich Buller, a senior vice president and executive board member of Fraunhofer Gesellschaft. "It is fitting that the UK's first Fraunhofer Centre is dedicated to lasers, a thriving industry Scotland has excelled in for decades," said Jim McDonald, principal of the University of Strathclyde. "Photonics activity is particularly strong in the UK, and most especially in Scotland, and I look forward to many years of collaboration between Fraunhofer and the UK companies which will be beneficial to the economies of Scotland, the UK and Europe as a whole," said Oliver Ambacher, director of the Fraunhofer Institute for Solid State Applied Physics in Freiburg, the partnering institute of the new Fraunhofer unit in Glasgow. "The establishment of the new center will provide a range of expertise, skills and facilities in photonics technologies that small and large companies can tap into to support their own innovation and product development, and ultimately economic success," said Mark Batho, chief executive of the Scottish Funding Council. The Fraunhofer Center is the latest in a series of partnerships the university has announced recently. Earlier this month, Strathclyde announced it will be the exclusive European partner for South Korea's global research and commercialization program, and in February said it would play a key role in the UK's Catapult Centre for Offshore Renewable Energy.

About Us
Starting back in the
70's as very determined athletes ourselves with only "average physical
attributes" we were looking for ways to improve our vertical leap,
speed, quickness and strength to get the edge on the competition and
get college scholarships. That desire and determination for improvement
drove us to undertake a massive research project involving hundreds of
athletes, coaches and trainers which culminated in our once "world
famous" JUMPING ADVANTAGE JUMP HIGHER BOOTCAMP vertical leap
improvement program. For years it was reviewed as the #1 program and it
led to us being contacted by the STRENGTH SHOES manufacturer to
research and sell their product. It also led to us being contacted by
SFX Professional sports agency to have their pro athletes endorse our
So we tested the STRENGTH SHOES product and ended up
bringing them on to our product line. Although my personal test of
Strength Shoes also included weight training and other training
methodologies simultaneously I definitely attribute part if not all of
my additional 4 inch gain to my STRENGTH SHOE WORKOUTS. And note that
my 4 inch gain came on top of and after I already had a 31 inch
vertical leap from 10 years off and on prior vertical jump training. I
think to myself like so many athletes do "what if I had this 35 inch
vertical leap 10 years earlier, maybe I would have made the pros!"
Positively impressed by the product we started selling Strength Shoes
and Running Parachutes. Soon thereafter I see this little 5'8" white
boy putting on a dunking show at my local gym and I ask him how he did
it. He attributed it to Strength Shoes workouts combined with the
Running Parachute in which he performed wind sprints with the Strength
Shoes while simultaneously dragging the parachute for resistance. He
also performed the exercises from the standard program. Later we find
out that simultaneuosly using the Running Parachute and Strength Shoes
together is a fairly widespread practice among advanced athletes.

- Valutata 4 su 5Is there any way to have the HTTP Header Live Main open in a new tab instead of a separate window?
I am trying to incorporate this addon for use with selenium webdriver.currently unfortunately yes. but there is the possibility to open it in the sidebar
- Valutata 5 su 5Great replacement for Live HTTP Headers! I didn't expect to find one.
And very active developer.
Thank you for this extension!
- Valutata 1 su 5Thanks for providing a backup option. It would be good to have the below features as well.
1. Provide an option to give a comma separated list of domains, so that the addon will take them and parse them.
2. In the "Add text to url", the text is being added to all the urls. Instead, if that is changed to "add Text to Specifix domain", then the text will be appended to only specific domains which is a very good feature.
- Valutata 5 su 5Thank you!
- Valutata 5 su 5Nice
- Valutata 3 su 5Nice resurrection of live HTTP Headers ! The actual HTTP error codes (200, 404 etc) are missing though and I wish it could also display sent headers, and not only received headers.
- Valutata 5 su 5Am liebsten würde ich 10 Sterne geben, das Addon ist mit Abstand das Beste um die Live Headers auszulesen.
Weiterhin gibt es auch sinnvolle Optionen welche die Arbeit weiter erleichtern.
Der technische Support ist auch ausgezeichnet - Ein MUST HAVE!!!
- Valutata 5 su 5Fantastic! Especially the filtering capabilities. Thank you so much!
- Valutata 5 su 5Replacement for Live HTTP Headers is HERE! Thank you for developing this!
A nice-to-have feature: Being able to choose from a few different themes for the output (vs. the stock black and white).
- Valutata 5 su 5Thanks! A great addon finally! Nice visual, simple and do what promise..
I'm looking for it after the addon Live Http Headers shut down...
One more tip:
- in search window and replay window, it shows long text lines, so I need to scroll to the side... Can you put a option to put all text aligned? Thanks.
- when I replay a information, the page opens in the same origin tab... There is a possibility to open the replay in the active tab already open in browser (not the origin tab)?
- Valutata 5 su 5Much needed and exact replacement for old Live http headers, great ! Thanks !
- Valutata 5 su 5Perfect for what I need. It provides simple HTTP headers and relevant info in a well formatted, easy to read window.
The option to save to a file would be nice, but still nice as is. Thanks for developing!

Rainbow Eyes
Spinal tap
Discharged Ashley today. The results will only be out in a few days time. All the tests cost $1.300,- so far. The spinal tap alone was $600.- but no choice have to give him a chance of diagnosis and treatment.
Still in the dark…
Ashley is now on Zitromax… and still not much improvement. Three months of high fever, fast breathing, poor appetite and weak legs. He also keeps losing weight…
I will probably not continue further treatment… which would be biopsy of of all his organs.
Weak hind leg
Ashley went for review yesterday… vet suspects neural damage as reflexes are slow. Ash can still walk but only slowly. It has been several weeks and still no improvement. He is taking Neuroforte.
Cat attack
One careless moment and Darly slipped out from the bedroom and immediately confronting his arch-enemy "Ashley" who is about half his size. I knew it was very risky but I quickly scooped Ashley into my arms. Darly jumped up and hung from my arm with his claws. When he finally let go he bit deep into my calf… managed to carry Ash to safety.
Had fever yesterday, the arm hurts much more than the leg…
It's natural cat behaviour… when they are in a frenzy. Just lucky that Ashley didn't turn on me, too…
Pot of grass
Best friends
Two of a kind
Ash had tried to make friends with Dawn… by biting her tail! He just can't resist biting! Hope also likes to play rough… Ike and Tommy are already getting weary of him.

Will new digital technologies radically transform the nature of research in the arts and humanities? Generally I think I might be relatively old fashioned about this.
Of course new technologies may change our modus operandi, and may alter the kinds of research we do. For example the (arguably disproportionate) dominance of the monograph and the article as the sole legitimate 'units' of contribution to scholarship in the humanities, may be challenged as digital tools make it easier to share annotations and micro observations, and to create vibrant, dynamic, living conversations around texts and topics. Technology will make it easier for us to traffic in small things like footnotes, asides, linkages, and momentary reflections in addition to the big things, like five-hundred page theses or multi-volume Festschriften.
But I strongly suspect that many of the core virtues of scholarship will remain the same. We may have tools and technologies to help us out with things which were previously a lot more laborious such as creating comprehensive concordances, searching for the occurrence of a certain name in literary Nachlässe, collaborating more easily and more effectively and so on. Lone researchers will be able to do things which perhaps in the past could only be undertaken by large teams of researchers over decades. But these tools and technologies will predominantly be there to support the creation of interesting insights and interpretations, hypotheses and meditations, to support scholars in continuing doing things which they have been doing for centuries.
If we can compare scholarship to walking around in the countryside, then perhaps digital tools are like satellite navigation systems. They can help us plan routes and get a big picture of where we are, but they are no substitute for direct acquaintance, or years of immersion. A good scholar will still have an intimate knowledge of the landscape: which part of the river dries out in the summer, the way that that tree has grown over time, where that stile crosses the path, the way to lift the gate on its hinge to make it turn more easily, the way the path slopes down the hill, and so forth.

Data collection is everywhere these days. Enormous amounts of information about all of us are gathered daily — while we're exercising, while we're shopping, even while we're sleeping. Now, though, a cleverly named new app called Spreadsheets wants to collect data while you're, well, banging.
The app uses your phone's accelerometer and microphone to gather and record information about the time you spend between your sheets. Everything from decibel levels to thrusts-per-minute are amassed and then converted into slick charts for later viewing.
One by-product of this snazzy new boudoir tech: You can now find out just how your sexy time stacks up compared to everyone else's. The folks at Nerve have made a nifty map incorporating Spreadsheets' data on the average length of a boom-boom session across America. New Mexico comes in with a marathon average of over seven minutes, while Alaskans are apparently more gifted as sprinters, with an average time of 1:21. Click through to see how your state ranks.
On a more serious note, though, we kind of like the way the app is being positioned as a way for couples to keep apprised of the trends in their sex life (or lack thereof). Using the app and looking at the data together could be a minimally awkward way to navigate potentially treacherous conversations. After all, numbers don't lie.

Ordained Ministry
in which there are deacons, priests and bishops.
They are called and empowered to fulfil an ordained ministry
and to enable the whole mission of the Church.
Our authority is in Scripture
and in the Church's continuing practice through the ages."
(Extract from A New Zealand Prayer Book, page 890)
In the Anglican tradition we recognise three orders:
- Deacons
- Priests
- Bishops
The process of entry into these orders is called ordination. All ordained people begin their lives as deacons, some become priests, and a small few bishops. Although each order has different responsibilities they are cumulative. That means that a priest is also a deacon, and that a bishop is both a deacon and a priest.
A deacon is called to a ministry of service. In the earliest church, candidates "full of the Spirit and of wisdom" (Acts 6:3) were invited to distribute food and care for the needs of the community. All those selected were gathered before the apostles "who prayed and laid their hands on them" (Acts 6:6). Ever since, deacons have been strongly associated with pastoral care, the distribution of consecrated bread and wine, and intercessory prayer.
In New Zealand we recognise two types of deacon: transitional and permanent. A transitional deacon is anticipating eventual ordination to the priesthood whereas permanent deacons commit to their order forever.
To learn more about a deacon's ministry see the Ordination Service, and especially page 891 (A New Zealand Prayer Book).
A priest is a deacon called to sacramental ministry. The Ordinal (service that ordains) describes the priest's priorities as follows:
and take their part in Christ's prophetic work,
to declare forgiveness through Jesus Christ,
to baptise,to preside at the Eucharist,
to administer Christ's holy sacraments."
(Extract from A New Zealand Prayer Book, page 901)
To learn more about a priest's ministry see the Ordination Service, and especially page 901 (A New Zealand Prayer Book).
If you feel called to ordained ministry the first thing you need to do is talk to your vicar. The vicar (a priest that a bishop has given a parish to) will be able to talk to you about what it means to be ordained and they will help you begin to understand what your future ministry might be.
Subsequent to these initial discussions you may be invited to make contact with the Director of Vocations. This may lead to a more formal process of discernment.
The Director of Vocations is responsible for helping people explore the call God is making on their lives. Even if you are discerned for ordained ministry you can expect to wait 18 or more months before ordination. This time is a critical part of the process.
The Reverend Stephen Black is the current Director of Vocations, for more information and to start talking please email Stephen.

A routine sweep through matters astronomical, more suitable (despite the title) for casual browsing than research or quick reference.
In a conventional single-topic-per-spread format, Goldsmith skims the history of astronomy and space exploration, tours the solar system and the universe beyond, then closes with glances at dark matter and other undiscovered territory. The illustrations, most of which are digital images rather than photos, have a staid look in keeping with a text that shares roughly equal space on each page and runs to drably phrased observations. "The outer layer of the Sun is full of activity, with constantly changing sunspots and other features." Confusing oversimplifications ("The stars change throughout the year") and some murky photos further mar the presentation. Moreover, frequent references to space films and novels, comments like "The usual fate of travelers who approach a black hole too closely is to be crushed" and views of futuristic spacecraft blur the lines between fact and fiction.
Handsome, at first glance, and up to date enough to include a spread on Global Positioning Systems—but one of the dimmer stars in the topical firmament. (print, Web and film resources) (Nonfiction. 10-12)

Best Scale: American Weigh Scales AMW-SC-2KG Digital Pocket Scale
This little pocket scale is my personal secret weapon when it comes to making great coffee anywhere. Its large capacity (meaning you can brew a full Chemex on it) and precise readings up to a tenth of a gram allow you to fine-tune your batch within a very tight range, even on bigger batches. Use it to weigh your coffee beans for a precise brew, after all brewing by weight ensures the ideal ratio for extraction. As with most scales, however, the one downside is that liquid can damage the display, but if you can make coffee without spilling it all over (a tough feat for me!), this inexpensive scale will last you countless coffees.
02 of 10
Best Nonelectric Coffee Grinder: Porlex JP-30 Stainless Steel Coffee Grinder
Hand grinders are a fantastic option for small kitchens, quiet mornings (those electric models can be so loud!), and individual brews—but if you're making coffee for a crowd you probably don't want to have to do the cranking. The Porlex's ceramic burrs are easily comparable in durability and quality to the Baratza's, and their conical design means the Porlex can grind even more uniformly than the flat set in the Baratza, despite the extra elbow grease. Adjustable from coarse to practically pulverized, the burrs can take some trial-and-error to find your perfect grind, but it's worth the effort. Weigh your beans before you load them into the tiny hopper for a precise amount of coffee grounds, but know that the Porlex can only hold 30g at a time—roughly enough to make a 16-ounce brew.
03 of 10
Best Coffee Bean Storage: Coffeevac Vacuum Sealed Coffee Container
Did you know that storing coffee in the freezer isn't recommended? So how should it be stored?
Of course you can store your coffee in the original packaging or toss it into any storage container you have empty, but this container is made specifically to keep your coffee at its peak flavor. It holds one pound of coffee and has a patented system that creates a partial vacuum while still allowing the coffee to de-gas without letting oxygen back into the container where it could affect the coffee's fresh flavor.
The container's design is sophisticated, but it's simple to use. Just press the button to remove the cap, and press the button again when you replace the cap – no need to pump-pump-pump to remove the excess air.
The container should be hand washed, but if you're only using it for coffee, it shouldn't need cleaning very often. This comes in a variety of colors, so you can keep regular separate from decaf or flavored coffees.

Best Coffee Scoop: 1Easylife Endurance Stainless Steel Coffee Scoops Set
Truth be told, scooping is never going to be the most precise or even the most consistent way to measure your coffee: Beans are just too different in shape and size to fit perfectly into the measuring cup or spoon every time, and even pre-ground coffee can vary by particle size. (Plus, fresh is best: Measure first, then grind for optimal quality.) That said, for sheer no-brainer coffee making, a scoop can be a good go-to tool if a scale is out of the question. These two lovely little ergonomic spoons come in two sizes, for smaller and bigger brews. For consistency's sake try to keep your scooping habits even: Just fill, don't heap.Continue to 5 of 10 below.
05 of 10
Best Electric Coffee Grinder: Baratza Vario W986 Flat Ceramic Coffee Grinder
Another weight-based tool to keep your brewing ratios and recipes on track, Baratza has incorporated a scale into its design, as well as a sensor that automatically stops the burrs when the desired weight is reached. A manual function allows you to also grind at will, though once you go pre-weighed you might never go back. Ceramic burrs are durable and long-lasting, creating an even grind-particle size. Don't forget to make adjustments to the coarseness or fineness of the grind to taste and strength, as the amount of coffee alone will not be the sole dictator of quality in your mug.

Best Coffee Filter Storage: Acrylic Coffee Filter Storage Rack with Cover
Need a neat place to store your coffee filter bags? We love this acrylic holder. It's not only stylish but also very functional, with the ability to hold about 100 cone paper filters (included.) The stand itself is durable and has a dust-proof cover that helps keep the filters clean while they're being stored, and the design makes it nice enough to sit out on your kitchen counter.
One of the complaints from customers is that it's a little creaky when you open and close it, but that hasn't stopped people from loving it and recommending it to others. People appreciate the convenience as well as the aesthetic of the product.
07 of 10
Best Timer: Taylor Precision Products Four-Event Kitchen Timer with Whiteboard
Just as brewing by weight is key for precise and delicious coffee, brewing by time is also an easy way to give your morning ritual a huge boost. This timer not only offers the ability to count up by seconds for preciseness (most brew times are best between 3–5 minutes), but it can handle several brews at the same time if you're feeling dextrous and want to line up all your pour-over cones at once for an impressive group batch. An attached whiteboard means you can even take notes about each one, marking down the coffee type or brewer type, or even using it to record variations in grind size to run comparisons and refine your technique.
08 of 10
Best Travel Mug: KeepCup Travel Mug
If you think you need an ugly, ho-hum stainless-steel travel mug to bring coffee with you on the go to work or play, think again: KeepCup's beautiful and surprisingly durable tempered-glass body is thick enough to withstand bumps and drops (trust me, I've definitely tested this firsthand), and keeps coffee nice and hot on any commute. The BPA-fee lids come in an enormous variety of colors, so you can customize your Joe to go, and the spill-proof slide on the top prevents day-ruining spills down the front of your shirt while you're jostling to get on the bus. The 12-ounce size is perfect for toting a latte out of the cafe, but KeepCup makes 8 and 16-ounce versions as well.

Best Water Filter: Brita 10-Cup Filter as You Pour Water Pitcher
If you're serious about coffee and tea, the water is an important ingredient since water can add unwanted flavors from chlorine and impurities. This pitcher lets you have filtered water quickly since it filters as it pours. The pouring is controlled, so you can fill your French press or other coffee maker with no spills. For cold brew, you can even filter ice water, so you have cold water to use and the ice is left behind.
The pitcher has an electronic filter-change indicator, so you know when the filter needs to be changed, and it filters up to 40 gallons of water between filter changes. The pitcher holds 10 cups, which is plenty for coffee, while keeping the pitcher compact. If you need more water, just refill the pitcher and pour – there's no need to wait. The pitcher is made from BPA-plastic, and the filters don't need to be soaked before using, for added convenience. This comes with one filter to get you started.

Best Coffee Pot Cleaner: Joe Glo Espresso Machine/Coffee Pot Cleaner
Ring around the brewer got you down? This powerful little powder packs a huge punch when it comes to getting coffee oils and hard-water stains out of your coffee brewing equipment. Use it to backflush a home espresso machine, or mix a small amount with hot water for a soaking solution that will strip your French press or drip cone squeaky clean. A little bit goes a long way—this stuff is concentrated—and it can be a pain to rinse away if you use too much at once, but it's perfect for use on travel mugs, ceramic mugs, AeroPress brewers, espresso shot glasses, stainless-steel milk pitchers, percolators—you name it.

As I mentioned in my evening skincare routine post, I've been using Chanel's new Le Lift eye cream for a few weeks now, and have been loving it. While the cream is lightweight, it packs a serious punch, with enough hydrating power to satisfy my super dry eye area.
This guy is unscented (no irritation), and really plumps up and firms the eye area so you always wake up with a youthful-looking gaze. I also never wake up with puffy eyes while using this cream.
I've also incorporated the new serum into my daytime routine, and really do noticeably see a difference. It adds an extra layer of moisture under my usual moisturizer and adds a dewy, hydrated plumpness to my skin (really great if you wake up looking tired, or for resurrecting a tired face after a late night ;)) My skin just sucks it up.
The serum contains Resveratrol-12 (resveratrol is that ingredient found in red wine that is proven to fight the signs of aging), an exclusive molecule patented by Chanel (that took 9 years of research) that is paired with lipoic acid, an antioxidant as powerful as Vitamin E. The Resveratrol-12 works gradually over 12 hours where it is needed most.
The texture is sort of a gel-cream texture, or a milkier serum. It has a pretty floral smell, but is not overpowering, and fades away quickly.
Plus, as always, Chanel does a great job on packaging–how pretty is the light pink with the black?
Chanel Le Lift Eye Cream & Serum will be available at all beauty counters August 18th.

10 Basic Facts Everyone Should Know About Art Work
Many of you are probably thinking that it would be impossible to produce artistic work if you're not blessed with innovative minds and hands. It's definitely accurate if we're still living during the past, but as of today, it will be actually possible to obtain the talents to generate anything creative. If you are searching for ways to find out more about art or you want to appreciate its beauty, you'll find plenty of approaches to do this. Art is usually known as the manifestation of the technical or creative skill of a person and many of us are blessed with this talent. The only problem is most people lack proper training to bring out their skill. Art online could be observed in several platforms and you can find a lot of info about them in only a click of a button.
You can easily find plenty of art websites on the net presenting various kinds of creative work. There are websites that are focused on visual arts including paintings, sculptures, mosaics and more and some can provide access to different performing arts like movies and theatrical performances.
These websites will enable you to view any art work without visiting the museum or going to the theater. By checking out the photos of this art work, you could value and understand what the author is attempting to portray.
Art websites can also be a platform where you could find info about art. These websites will offer tutorials along with valuable assets to help you find out more about this art work.
Art videos are typical because a lot of people display their artwork through video clips. It is correct that watching videos will certainly be a good way to find out more about art, but you'll know that it is still better to view these art pieces personally.
These videos will allow you to view various art styles as well as the work of various artists. These videos are really informative since they will explain the techniques used by the different artists.
You'll find plenty of videos online that will give you info regarding the different forms of art. It's not too hard to find them on the net so long as you know what you are searching for.
Art is actually split in several styles and it's typically combined with entertainment. There are conventional strategies including painting, sculpture, literature and poetry and they're passed from generation to generation. Alternatively, conventional entertainment includes orchestra, musicals, opera and musical instruments. Today, you'll find new inclusions in art like photography, decorations, toys, movies, games, animation and more. Arts and entertainment grew a lot through the years and everything that will require an individual to use his creative talents can already be called art work.
It is definitely hard to learn how to create artistic work, specifically if you do not have the technical skills to make them. It is a good thing that art is split into several categories and you could find something that will suit your talents. You must not be frustrated if you failed in a particular art because there are other forms of art that you can consider.Top

Days like today epitomise the way life is meant to be for Ospreys at this time of year! Today has played out much like yesterday, with a quiet peacefulness over the bay and the Ospreys behaving just as they know they should. It doesn't get much better. There is a distinct sense of contentment radiating from the birds as they sit on the nest, incubating their three eggs. They are doing what their instinct dictates, and they are doing it perfectly. We cannot ask for more than that.
Again they have been changing incubation shifts throughout the day, and not just when fish is brought in.
Speaking of fish, 33 has brought in two today. The first was a bit of a disappointment, due to the fact that it was so small…
However, he redeemed himself later by bringing in a huge trout!
