Following Our Bliss
Since 2006, we've followed our dreams, starting out as a small private practice in a Berkeley office, growing over a decade into a booming retail shop in Oakland, then a second shop in Portland.
Then we heard the call of the mountains. We are now based exclusively in Dunsmuir, CA with the beauty of nature and the excitement of thousands of annual spiritual pilgrims to Mt Shasta. We thrive when we are exploring the world and making connections with fellow mystic travelers, and we bring that spirit to our work with products you won't find anywhere else, world-class readings, and spiritual travel opportunities.
Our shop at 5816 Dunsmuir Ave in Dunsmuir, CA, specializes in:
skillful, experienced, and caring intuitive readings
mystery school classes and spiritual retreats to help you access the magic within
ethically-sourced crystals from small family mines
beautiful jewelry
luscious, handmade perfumes and self-care products
herbal remedies for healing
We roll out new products, classes, and services as creativity moves us and new ideas manifest. Follow our Instagram or sign up for our newsletter below to keep track of our latest online sales, pop-up shops, classes, readings, and events.
Our Values
We build relationships. Our business has flourished for over a decade because we build caring relationships with our customers, vendors, and artists. We treat people with dignity, respect, and consideration for their needs, and we put special effort into our work with you.
We love it here. We chose to be here. Dunsmuir and Siskiyou County are our home. We employ locals, we care about the natural landscape and the indigenous people of this region, we work to help protect the clean, fresh water here, and we love to share our enthusiasm for our quaint little community with visitors.
We source ethically. We carry wildcrafted and ethically-harvested sage that has been gathered with the proper permits and indigenous permission.

We price our goods fairly. Our pricing reflects fair treatment for both our suppliers and our customers. We pay artists and craftspeople what they deserve, and we set our prices as low as possible so that our customers receive great products they can afford.
We care about something more important than money. When we sat down to create the plan for our move to Siskiyou County, we first made a list of all the things we wanted to do here that were more important to us than a paycheck. Of course we need to survive, like anyone else, but our primary motivation in all that we do at The Sacred Well is the freedom to make a living according to our values, holding for the benefit of all beings.
Thank you for being part of The Sacred Well journey. We welcome you to come see how good it feels when love leads the way for a small, caring group of artists and creatives.

Book Review: 'Small Wars, Faraway Places' by Michael Burleigh
The British believed that Singapore, their 'Gibraltar of the East,' was impervious to attack. It withstood assault for only a week.
'Small Wars, Faraway Places" opens with the fall of Singapore to the Japanese in February 1942, an event that Winston Churchill called "the worst disaster and largest capitulation in British history." The British believed that the "Gibraltar of the East" was impervious to attack; it stood for only a week. The rapid Japanese victory was a clear indication that the easy assumptions of colonialism were gone and that new forces were rising that would diffuse power around the globe.
Michael Burleigh chronicles the end of the British, French and Dutch empires in the wake of World War II and looks into what replaced them and why, a topic, he argues, that has special relevance because "generals and military experts have ransacked this period for 'how to do it' lessons for contemporary Iraq and Afghanistan." A British academic turned popular historian, who in the past decade has penned thousands of pages on the history of the 20th century, Mr. Burleigh traces the course of the rising tide of nationalism in the two decades following World War II. It is a rollicking journey in the company of such dynamic figures as British Gen. Gerald Templer, who won the Malayan Emergency and popularized the phrase "hearts and minds," and French President Charles de Gaulle, who lost Algeria after a brutal counterinsurgency campaign that relied heavily upon torture.
This is a book that could only have been written by a British writer. The tone simultaneously reveals, on the one hand, regret over the excesses of violence and hubris required to forge an empire on which the sun never set and, on the other, justified pride in the progress that countries made under British colonial rule, especially when compared with the fate of countries that had the poor fortune to be colonized by the Dutch or the French. Mr. Burleigh paraphrases Lord Wavell, the viceroy of India during World War II, on the British withdrawal from their crown jewel by noting that "the momentum of past prestige prevented the imperial boat from slowing before it hit the rocks." And he isn't above resorting to wordplay: The chapter on the successful American counterinsurgency campaign against the Hukbalahap guerrillas in the Philippines is titled "By Huk or by Crook," and his analysis of the defeat of the French in Indochina is presented under the title "Parachute the Escargot."
Small Wars, Faraway Places
By Michael Burleigh
(Viking, 587 pages, $36)
The book moves chronologically through the age of decolonization across Asia, the Middle East and Africa but treads into other topics as well, including the not-so-small Korean War and even the Cuban missile crisis. The latter was neither a war nor set in a place far away from the "World Capital on the Potomac" that Mr. Burleigh correctly notes assumed global power and responsibility during the years he covers. His final chapter, "Watershed of the American Century," focuses on domestic American politics and the Vietnam War before abruptly concluding in a ridiculously short single paragraph of analysis after nearly 500 pages of text. In that lonely paragraph, Mr. Burleigh says that "the central contradiction addressed by this book has not been between American ideals and practice, but the fact that, unlike the British, French, Dutch, Spanish and Portuguese empires, the USA profited little and lost much from its misconceived adoption of liberal imperialism."
There is another way to view the many sacrifices America made during the Cold War to preserve liberty against the real threat of global communism and support the newly independent countries that, as Mr. Burleigh writes in his final sentence, "have become some of the most dynamic economies of the twenty-first-century world." The extraordinary economic growth of most of Asia over the past several decades could only have happened within the security framework that American military power has provided and is something that even China's military leaders, when pressed, have admitted is a public good.
The U.S.-directed schadenfreude that Mr. Burleigh enjoys is particularly grating when he refers to the recent counterinsurgency campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan. His statement that "such contemporary adepts as General David Petraeus do not readily acknowledge" the reality that "hearts-and-minds campaigns only worked once kinetic force—a euphemism for killing people—had achieved population and spatial control" is easily disproved by a glance at the new rules of engagement and resulting marked increase in artillery and airstrikes that Gen. Petraeus imposed immediately upon his assumption of command in Afghanistan in 2010. And while the current reviewer may indeed, as Mr. Burleigh argues, be "unduly respectful of British exemplars," he himself could have been more respectful of my father's decision to name me John rather than Thomas.
There are important lessons from the campaigns Mr. Burleigh covers for the wars of the 21st century. Max Boot dissected them in his recent "Invisible Armies," the obvious comparison point for "Small Wars, Faraway Places." Mr. Boot's book covers a much broader time span, from antiquity to the present, and explicitly seeks to winkle out historical continuities that recur across latitudes and epochs. Mr. Burleigh examines fewer cases in greater depth—a fair trade—but spends less time pulling them together to draw broad implications and conclusions by which the reader can better understand the past, present and future. This is a missed opportunity from a historian who understands the past century far better than most but has, in this case, preferred personal opinion to careful historical analysis.
Mr. Nagl, a retired Army officer, is the headmaster of the Haverford School in Haverford, Pa. He is the author of "Learning to Eat Soup With a Knife: Counterinsurgency Lessons From Malaya and Vietnam."

We are constantly full with dogs and would appreciate any foster homes or rescues to help us out! Thanks!
We desperately need help here at the dog pound. We are in need of FOSTER HOMES and people to volunteer here at the shelter (that includes walking and playing with the dogs, and cleaning kennels).

In the 2016 election cycle, there has been no bigger boogeyman than Wall Street, so much so that a major candidate for president of the United States has devoted almost his entire campaign to curbing abuses by Wall Street fat cats.
Into that climate steps Jodie Foster with "Money Monster," a thriller that imagines what it would be like if the people fought back against the greedy businessmen who play fast and loose with their money. The every-man in this case is a raving madman named Kyle Budwell (Jack O'Connell) who takes over a popular Wall Street TV show hosted by smarmy trader Lee Gates (George Clooney), strapping a bomb to Gates' chest and demanding answers about a stock he recommended on air that took an $800 million hit that the CEO attributed to a computer glitch.
Having invested his entire savings in this stock, which Gates guaranteed to be safer than a savings account, Budwell lost everything and out of desperation threatens to blow up the studio unless the company makes it right.
Along with his faithful director, Patty Fenn (Julia Roberts), Gates at first tries to placate Budwell, feeding him platitudes about how the market works and everyone makes mistakes. But as Fenn begins doing some behind-the-scenes digging, she begins to realize that something much more nefarious is at work here, and that maybe it wasn't a computer glitch that crashed that stock after all.
In an age of Feel the Bern, anti-Wall Street sentiment, "Money Monster" at times feels a bit like a screed. The performances are uniformly excellent, especially O'Connell's, who continues to establish himself as one of the finest young actors out there. But director Foster makes a major miscalculation when she tries to say that the guy with the bomb and the gun is somehow more righteous than the crooked Wall Street executives pulling the strings behind the scenes.
Foster tries to absolve Budwell with a third act revelation, but the fact remains that he's essentially a terrorist. The film wants us to sympathize with him over the white-collar criminals he's fed up with, but it's hard to feel sorry for a guy waving a gun threatening to blow everyone up over a bad investment. "Money Monster" thinks it's being morally ambiguous, but in reality it's just being morally queasy.
Two wrongs don't make a right, despite the film's insistence that one of these wrongs was somehow justified. Craft-wise, Foster handles the tension well, but a few of its beats ring false (an on-air confrontation with Budwell's girlfriend comes off as unintentionally funny), and the climax feels a bit overcooked. I just don't see the NYPD allowing this to go as far as it does, especially potentially endangering the lives of thousands of innocent people. It's a film that thinks it has a noble cause, but in reality it's just as confused as its angry and irrational protagonist.

Gary Johnson was teaching math and business in 1968 in his hometown of Humboldt, Minn., when the school superintendent asked if he could help teach firearms safety.
Fifty years later, Johnson still teaches firearms safety — and has no plans of stopping anytime soon.
Teaching the course has been a good fit, he says.
"I've been in a family that hunts ever since I was born," Johnson, 79, said Thursday. "I love the outdoors. I've been raised on a farm so it just kind of comes naturally."
Plus, he said, "I still can outwalk most of my family" during deer season.
A semi-retired farmer, Johnson, of Humboldt, in mid-July was presented with an engraved watch from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources for his 50 years of volunteer commitment to teaching firearms safety.
DNR Conservation Officer Jeremy Woinarowicz presented the watch to Johnson during the field day the longtime instructor hosts on his farm for students upon completion of the classroom portion of the course.
"I hadn't even thought about it being 50 years at that time, but I knew I was getting close," Johnson said.
In 14 years as a conservation officer, Woinarowicz says Johnson only is the second firearms safety instructor he's presented with a 50-year award. The first, also from Kittson County, was Odeen Anderson of Lake Bronson, Minn., who died in January 2016.
Woinarowicz's work area includes Kittson County.
"It is a real honor to see people that dedicated for that length of time to the youth of Minnesota," Woinarowicz said. "How lucky we are to have those people that are still dedicated to our program and making sure the youth of Minnesota are safe and ethical hunters."
Over the years, Johnson says he's taught firearms safety to about 20 students annually, on average. Multiply that by 50 years, that means some 1,000 students have benefited from his commitment to firearms safety.
And it's not just 11- and 12-year-olds who have taken his courses, Johnson says.
"I have taught an all-women's class — they said they'd get a divorce if their husbands taught them — where I was the only man in class," Johnson said. He also taught a pair of girls from Mexico visiting family in Kittson County who couldn't get firearms safety training in their home country.
Johnson in recent years has taught most of his classes in the fire hall in Hallock, Minn.
"That works out pretty good because we've got lots of room and don't have to worry about bringing in firearms to demonstrate," he says.
Beyond the basics
The curriculum hasn't changed much since he started teaching, Johnson says, but he'll attend DNR instructor training courses every few years just to make sure he's current.
The minimum classroom requirement for firearms safety is 12 hours, Johnson says, but he routinely offers 20 to 25 hours of classroom time beyond the basics.
Completing his course typically takes about a month, he says.
"We try to take more time (focusing on) the outdoors — conservation, responsibility, that sort of thing," Johnson said. "We're trying to make it so it's not just a shooting and hunting class; it's a conservation and safety class."
Kids have changed in this era of violent video games and violent programming, Johnson says.
"That's not real," he said. "Then they can't figure out why we push that (gun safety) is not a laughing matter. We've lost a little bit of common sense over the last few years. Guns aren't as common as they used to be, and (the kids) don't see the problems with it. We have to try to demonstrate, by shooting a watermelon or cabbage or something, to show them the impact of what a shell does."
The field day Johnson hosts at his farm for his firearms safety students has become a big event, he says. With help from family members and other instructors such as Dale Hanson of Hallock, the kids participate outdoor activities ranging from clay target shooting and archery to learning about treestand safety.
Area chapters of the Minnesota Deer Hunters Association and Pheasants Forever, along with local businesses, donate prizes or money to help offset costs, and the day wraps up with a big supper.
"It becomes a real big day, but it makes things real nice when we have the support," Johnson said. "Before, it used to come out of our pockets."
"Consequently, we've been able to give a couple of guns away every year, and every kid gets ear muffs and shirts and caps, and they have some fun with it, too, so they enjoy it. And then the parents are invited to the field day, and we encourage them to stay and watch their kids so they learn what we're teaching them."
Johnson's motivation for continuing to teach firearms safety is simple, he says.
"I love it," he said. "I've been able to teach my grandkids and my kids, and I'm teaching grandkids of students that I taught before."
Occasionally, former students will email photos of their first deer or will stop to talk if they see Johnson out and about.
"The kids are appreciative of it — they really are," he said. "I've worked with kids for an awful long time, being a teacher, and I was a youth advisor to a church for many, many years.
"I enjoy working with students, and I guess I just enjoy what I'm doing."

Hey movie lovers,
Who thinks 2016 is going to be a fantastic year for movies?The trailer for Independence Day: Resurgence not only confirmed that statement but also gave me hope for sequels. Let me gush!
Independence Day was such a memorable movie for me. Aliens, suspense, sacrifices for humanity, Will Smith, it couldn't get any better!
But the director, Roland Emmerich wasn't through with the story and in 2016, he has blessed us with a sequel, taking place 20 years after the events of the original story. I am so damn excited, it is unreal!
No Will Smith, but it is fine. His son and wife will be featured as well as the rest off the cast. Jeff freaking Goldblum will also be reprising this role and it's enough for me to head to the movie theatres to preorder my ticket. New cast members will also be introduced but I'm not as excited for them as I am for this new story line.
There is so much going on in this trailer, though. But I'm not complaining. Especially with those explosive effects. Can June 24 come soon enough?!
Hollywood is having a field day with these trailers and my calendar is packed. 2016, I'm ready!

In intermediary metabolism G6PD is aptly depicted as the first step in the pentose phosphate pathway. However, several lines of evidence indicate that its most essential role is not to produce pentose, but rather to produce reductive potential in the form of NADPH. Recently, G6PD-null mouse embryos have been obtained by targeted inactivation of G6PD in embryonic stem cells. From a detailed analysis of hemizygous mutant embryos, which die by day 10.5, it was inferred that the cause of death is precisely the onset of aerobic metabolism. Interestingly, heterozygous embryos also die, somewhat later, only if their G6PD-null gene is of maternal origin: in this case the cause of death is a defective placenta, as a consequence of the selective inactivation of the paternal X chromosome in extra-embryonic tissues.

If you are asking yourself why you should snob the books and turn to this method I have just one word for you, revolutionary! Yes, the Ultimate Tarot Reading Course is the best resolve as it is, that is if you are looking forward to:
- Long mastery
- Illustrative methodology
- Pictorial meanings
This is why you ought to buy the program. I am not implying that this is the kill switch for books or the end of the road for them either, you can have a couple for reference. They still are functional in this art and saw it all before this modernization.
This program is the clarion call for different strategy with an optimum end result. Just like the name insinuates, the program's methodology is indeed the reason why the program stands out. It is what gives it an edge over the books and other similar programs.
The program incorporates the following which makes it highly efficient for getting all the meanings and mastery of the 78 cards like a pro:
- Step 1- Tarot videos
This first step lets you learn from simply watching the videos. You can watch the videos over and over again just until you feel the message has properly sunk in. The videos are available offline but you will get them once you create your own account with the online course.
- Step 2- Vast Tarot content
It all varies with what form you choose to take on the course. You can either listen in MP3 format as audio or watch it MP4-wise. The perk about the content being sublimed to MP3 is that you can listen to it from anywhere.
Also, the material is 100% legit so you have no worries of counterfeits or scam worthy reviews. It is all ClickBank regulated. The Intel you will get form both the video and audio are similar just as it is so you do not have to worry about lagging behind on lessons.
- Step 3- Easy to read detailed reports
Like I mentioned, the Intel is vast and if you do not want to get your hands dirty in the audios or videos, you can bunk on the online reports.
See the lucrative thing about reports is that all the intricacies of Tarot card reading ends up here. All the information that you may have missed out has to appear in the report because of its cumulative nature.

There are not just the updates which are fascinating but the learning process is not stream-lined. You do not have to get worked up on your slow pace. The program picks up pace slow so it will not leave you latching onto past lessons.
Furthermore, you will easily combine:

It looks pretty basic but a combination of your hearing form the audio courses, what you see in the video courses and the reading all fused with your hands is what makes the process speedy. I you will be able to instantly connect to the program, getting the lessons will be quite easy don't you think?
Where you can buy Ultimate Online Tarot Reading Course?

Final Take
I do not see how Ultimate Online Tarot Reading Course lessens the bulk of study lessons. They seem in equal proportion but the program is considerate in making the program a little interesting with the whole audio and video courses.
I however feel that the program is revolutionary. Its tactics is revolutionary and deviates from the old school approach. It makes mastery of all things Tarot simple and basic.
• If you once gave up on the way because the toughness in memorizing all the amounts of pictured messages, this program makes mastery of the meaning hasty.
• Unlike the elective books you can pick up from a shelf, this online program offers convenience because it needs just your log in and you are in learning sessions.
• The program implores 4 guide steps which are precise on getting you affiliated with how to catch up with the lessons that the course e-book offers.
• The combination of your sight, hearing, reading and your touch is like the 4 ultimate senses for the program; implore them all together and you are a dynamic Tarot card reader.
• It makes sense why the program configures the learning steps in just 4 steps just as it has encompassed the 4 senses for mastery; this is a disrepute to scam reviews.
• It is simple and precise therefore easy to catch up on even if you are a rookie making out the meanings by yourself is possible without losing track.
• This program is the clarion call for different strategy with an optimum end result just like the name insinuates, the program's methodology is indeed the reason why the program stands out.
• I do not feel any lessening in effort because the intrigue of the program is just as in books since they both curtail you to read and memorize.
• The program only disburses the audio and video lessons to you once you are a member; if you are not you will have to stick to books.
• ClickBank is the sole retailer of the program therefore getting it offline will be quite impossible if you try.
Summary: The Ultimate Tarot Reading Course is the online guide you need for making yourself a dynamic Tarot Card Reader. Unlike the elective course books or video courses that you may bunk on, this program simulates a different approach towards getting good at Tarot reading.

I liked that the instructor was practical and did not use complex illustrations. One person even became a professional psychic after just two months on the course!
Preston on 2018-02-01 06:27:01
This online program is amazing!! I got a lot of tarot before this is the best primer hands down. The color illustrations of the cards are stunning and rarely have I seen the cards' meanings explained this well--easy-to-understand but still peppered with lots of interesting insights. A beginner won't be intimidated but the more advanced practitioner will still learn things. This is a simply gorgeous that you'll love to look at AND use!

For altering the federal zone of Lake Chapala without proper authorization from the National Water Commission (Conagua), the Chapala government is facing a steep fine and the possible demolition of the Jesús Pescador statue and unfinished bridge linking the waterfront Malecón to the artificial island where the towering religious figure stands.
The fine of approximately 1.5 million pesos is being imposed by the Servicio de Administración Tributaria (SAT), the federal government's tax department, according to Chapala's chief legal officer Isaac Trejo.
The boondoggle originated with the construction of the rocky outcropping on the east side of the Chapala pier and erection of a five-meter-tall bronze image of Jesus Fisherman, carried out under the 2007-2009 administration of Gerardo Degollado González. His brother, Javier Degollado González, cooked up the bridge project after taking office as mayor in 2015. Work has continued and now nears completion under the current government.
Neither of the projects has been formally approved by Conagua, the federal agency responsible for regulating national waters and contiguous lands. Ironically, the Jalisco government contributed significant funding for the works, apparently without requiring proof of Conagua's consent.
Interviewed this week, Javier Degollado acknowledged that he allowed work on the pedestrian bridge to continue after Conagua inspectors ordered suspension of the project in October 2016 due to modifications of the original design, as authorized by a provisional verbal agreement with agency officials in Guadalajara.
"If we had waited for the permit, we could not have finished the initial phase on time to avoid losing state money," Degollado said.
The former mayor, now serving as a city councilor, indicated that it is unlikely that the statue and its collateral projects will ever be torn down because they are important areas of public use. He cited the similar situation of the Malecón in San Antonio Tlayacapan that is also subject to a Conagua demolition order issued in 2013, later ratified by the nation's Supreme Court. The project was eventually completed without further Conagua intervention, remaining intact to this day.

Repugnant behavior of VIJAY MALLYA towards liquidation of Property
Amit Desai, the representative of fugitive VIJAY MALLYA, has opposed consortium application of selling out his property.
The consortium of 12 banks led by SBI had decided on Monday to sell Mallay's assets that the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has attached so that these can be sold "immediately" to recover the debts. The application has been filed under special CBI court in Mumbai.
Desai said, "consortium have other alternatives too. He added, "consortium should have gone to the civil court rather than going to CBI court." Desai added that the special court in Mumbai was not the right forum for passing the order on liquidating the property as the proper forum was the Karnataka High Court. He further added that at CBI court had not involved Kingfisher's employees in any of the proceedings.
Desai said that Mallya has been saying that everything should be sold off and the money should be handed over to all those people to whom he owes. "We have been suggesting for the last one year, appoint a retired judge, sell off everything, don't involve me (Mallya) and take everything."
The principal amount that Mallya owes to the banks is around Rs 5,000 crore, which has risen to around Rs 12,000 crore with the 11.5 percent interest that has been mounting because of non-payment of dues.
According to the people who were involved in the case said "when the investigating agencies had attached Mallya's properties, which mainly consists of shares of some of his companies, the attachment was worth only Rs 2,000 crore. But over the years with the share prices going up, his stakes have reached Rs 15,000 crore, and thus there is "ample for everyone to get their share."
Syndicate lawyer said" "One does not know when he will come back and until then public money cannot be kept in abeyance
Advocate D P Singh representing the enforcement agency got up to say that he only wanted to correct the argument made by the consortium lawyer.

Items To Remember When Starting A House Business
Getting your own home-based business up and running is much simpler if you have good guidance. The next paragraphs will help you begin your company.
If any business expenses arise from being forced to entertain clients, you may deduct these costs out of your taxable earnings. Most of these meetings you are able to record as business expenses. You should make completely sure that you are only recording expenses that relate to actual or potential customers.
It is important to evaluate which the going rates are for your products or services. You must which means that this before marketing and selling. If you check out the competition's price for your product or service, consider whether you may offer more reasonable rates. An effective way to create more income for your business is to pay attention to your good qualities, as an alternative to focusing on the negative qualities of other businesses.
Work with a good business plan. Regardless of the measurements of your company, it's vital that you lay out goals and guidelines to go by. In case you have a set plan, it will be easy to continue to build your small business effectively.
When it comes tax time, you desire to make sure that you take all the deductions and credits available that you can legitimately qualify for.
Claiming every deduction for which you qualify on the taxes can help you save a substantial sum of money.
Help make your work space safe. Obtain a smoke detector, and also a fire extinguisher, for your office. If you're using the pc a lot, it is recommended the setup is plenty for yourself. When you're protected when it comes to fire, you'll cut back on insurance fees, and an ergonomic computer set-up will ensure you remain without any RSI or carpal tunnel.
It is recommended to take a little risks and try home based business if you would like continue to grow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcqctct_SKo Tinkering with new things is something you can do to draw in men and women to your company, which can cause high amounts of profit. If you do not try new stuff with your routine, you may overlook better, more potent options.
Understand your possible client base prior to starting a company. Although you may think you know a great deal about anything you're marketing, you should understand the market fully to enable you to attract several people as is possible. Once you design your website, bear in mind how customers usually buy your product or service. There might be unwritten rules you may not find out about.
Select the business that you think offers the best chance of profitability. Look at your market to view exactly how much competition you'll have. It might be hard to start up a business if you're against plenty of competition. Evaluate your organization prospects prior to getting started.
As spelled out earlier, starting a residence business and being your very own boss is really a dream about a lot of people. Success could be a dream if you are uneasy about how to go about a business..

Drink drive limit facing first cut in a generation
Motorists face being limited to less than a glass of wine or pint of beer before they get behind the wheel under plans to bring England and Wales in line with Scottish reforms.
Ministers are holding talks over cutting the drink-driving limit for the first time in almost 50 years, it emerged yesterday. They will meet their counterparts north of the border to hear of "the experience of the lower limit" before considering possible changes in the rest of Britain.
Although the Department for Transport insisted that there was no plan at present to change the law, it is the first time the government has hinted at the reforms.
The move comes a week after official figures showed that the number of people killed by…

Pooch Screwed
Time to pick up the leavings of the dog-burning case in an inverted plastic bag. Twin brothers Travers and Tremayne Johnson were found not guilty of dousing a dog with gasoline and setting her on fire. Bernstein's office released a statement: "While I respect the jury's decision, I'm disappointed that we didn't achieve the outcome that we fought for during two challenging trials. .. Animal cruelty is a serious crime of violence."

Review: Carmen, with a Twist
Barrie Kosky's production of Carmen is theatrical in every sense of the word...
Choreography is at the core of this rendition of Bizet's classic; the staging is minimal, a toned-down golden staircase taking centre stage and hosting the incredible dance numbers throughout the performance. While you might expect more pomp and circumstance from a Royal Opera House production, the minimalistic set allows for a greater focus on the songs, and in this production, the dance, that guides the story of the enigmatic Carmen.
The question that runs throughout the production is: who is Carmen? She first appears to us dressed in a pink toreador costume, commanding the stage with her decisive movements. Then, we see her in a gorilla suit, which she takes off and, finally, wears a more familiar Spanish dress. Along with this, Kosky effortlessly underlines the mystery surrounding Carmen suggesting that she is the omnipresent, seductive narrator of the show.
Otto Pichler's choreography in tandem with Katrin Lea Tag's costume design should be applauded, the tactful performance and change of costume allow Carmen to transform through the performance. At once she has the control of a toreador, the anger and volatility of a gorilla and the seduction of a Spanish dancer. French mezzo-soprano Gaëlle Arquez was electric in her portrayal of the titular part. American tenor Brian Jagde is also superb in his performance as Don José, his rendition of the song 'La Fleur Que Tu M'avais Jestée' (The Flower Song) was especially harrowing.
Keri-Lynn Wilson conducted the show excellently, the musical cues merging with the choreography to produce a seamless performance. Speaking to Simple Press before the performance, Wilson noted that this production is a 'huge twist, just a twist on Carmen.' And she was certainly right; not only is the staging and choreography more theatrical but, without wanting to spoil the end of the show, the final scenes were particularly surprising. Kosky's production of Carmen is certainly his own, the show feels familiar to Bizet's classic but is markedly different- all elements of the show coming together to form a sophisticated production. In particular, the iconic Toreador Song set to the synchronised dancing of the chorus is breath-taking.
Wilson remarked that the 'staging itself, it all evolves' in this production, though it is not just the staging that evolves but, also, our understanding of Carmen herself.
Carmen runs until 22nd December at the Royal Opera House. Click here for more information.

crest to navigate
Saturday 9th September.
Today was an early chance to erase the memory of Tuesdays debacle
against Oldham, although the opposition Bolton Wanderers had a similar
memory to expunge having been knocked out by Macclesfield. Unfortunately,
Town were going to have to manage without the vocal support of yours
truly who was suffering from a really bad nauseous headache. I got
as far as putting on my socks and undies, but still didnt feel
as though I could make it through the 90 minutes without throwing
The team showed a few changes from Tuesday, with Ken Monkou partnering
Chris Lucketti and Craig Armstrong in a 5 man defence that featured
new loan signing Rob Kozluk in the right back slot. Kevin Gallen
and Chris Holland (I thought he was going to be out for a month)
both returned to the starting eleven and our other loan signing
Kevin Kyle was on the substitutes bench.
Eager to put the weeks cup humiliation behind them Town started
brightly and had an early chance in the fourth minute when Kevin
Gallen headed just wide of the target following a lay off by Jamie
Vincent. The Trotters had ambitions of their own to continue their
unbeaten start to the campaign and Nico Vaesen needed to be on the
ball to tip a Dean Holdsworth effort around the post for a corner
after 9 minutes. Both sides continued to attack at will and Kevin
Gallen had further opportunities to break the deadlock in the 11th
and 18th minutes but on both occasions Jussi Jaaskelainen was able
to save the effort. Towns luck at the other end held out in the
21st minute when Dean Holdsworth contrived to completely miss the
ball from Per Frandsens free kick from the left.
The game continued in a fairly adventurous manner as both sides
continued to look positive although the number of clear-cut chances
diminished as the half progressed. Rob Kozluk tried to break free
from his defensive shackles where possible and provided a great
cross into the area on 35 minutes but the ball was cleared for a
corner before Martin Smith could connect. Kozluk again showed his
attacking ambitions as the end of the half neared but his shot was
a little too near to Jaaskelainen and the keeper safely collected
the effort. Deep into injury time a Jamie Vincent corner was beautifully
met by Kevin Gallen but unfortunately his powerful header passed
inches wide of the upright. Town probably deserved to be in the
lead as the referee brought the half to a close, but at least they
had negotiated the first 45 minutes safely against one of the divisions
fancied teams.
After the interval I was starting to feel a little brighter and
so must Town as they took the lead through Martin Smith in the 51st
minute. Bolton keeper Jaaskelainen hit a poor clearance from Dean
Holdsworths weak back-pass and as it landed at the feet of Smith
he calmly chipped the ball into the back of the unguarded net from
35 yards out. The lead proved to be short lived as Towns woeful
defending this season continued when they failed to pick up Dean
Holdsworth just 4 minutes later as he drove home John OKanes cross.
Former Bantam Isaiah Rankin was sacrificed for ex-Walsall striker
Michael Ricketts in the 52nd minute and Steve Bruce introduced lanky
Kevin Kyle for his Town debut on the hour replacing the tiring Ken
Monkou. Unfortunately for Town it was the Bolton substitution that
proved decisive as Ricketts caught Lucketti in two minds what to
do with the ball and the Bolton striker lobbed the ball home from
12 yards out. It seemed that once again Town were going to throw
away a lead, but Jon Dyson on as a second half substitute for the
injured again Martin Smith had other ideas. In the 74th minute Dyson
rose to plant Jamie Vincents corner into the back of the net to
restore parity to the scoreline.
The home joy proved to be extremely short lived once again as
Bolton broke forward straight from the kick off with Bo Hansen finding
acres of space down the right. His cross found veteran striker Ian
Marshall at the back post, and with Town's defence in disarray,
teed up Ricketts for a simple close-range side-foot to make the
score 3-2.
Former Bolton favourite Scott Sellars was brought on in the 83rd
minute as Bruce forfeited another defender Jamie Vincent as they
tried to avoid yet another home defeat. Once again our lack of real
quality up front showed through as we failed to trouble Bolton again
and the score remained the same until full time and the dire start
to this campaign at home continued. We have been unlucky with injuries
to key players such as Steve Jenkins and Clyde Wijnhard but we must
improve the defence as we cannot hold onto a lead this season and
if we could we would be occupying a league position similar to that
of our visitors today.
With another tough game on Tuesday in front of the Sky TV cameras
against Wimbledon, the points are looking a little hard to come
by at the moment. Another worrying aspect of the game is that attendances
seem to be in freefall. Although my own absence reduced the crowd
by one, a turnout of 12,248 contained 2,478 from the wrong side
of the Pennines. I am no mathematician but this tells me that the
number of Town fans was below 10,000. Wimbledon are notoriously
badly supported, and the attendance for Tuesdays fixture is likely
to be pretty poor indeed.

Development of a modified Dumon stent for tracheal applications: an experimental study in dogs
Desenvolvimento de uma órtese de Dumon modificada para aplicações traqueais: um estudo experimental em cães

AbstractObjective: To describe the development of a silicone stent and perform in vivo testing for biocompatibility/applicability in the normal canine
ResumoObjetivo: Descrever o desenvolvimento de uma órtese de silicone e os testes in vivo de compatibilidade e aplicabilidade na traquéia canina
Keywords: Implants, experimental; Silicones; Biocompatible materials.
Palavras-chave: Implantes experimentais; Silicones; Materiais biocompatíveis.
The treatment of benign or malignant obstructive lesions of the lower airways has always been a challenge due to their complex pathophysiology and the various management options. Surgical correction is still the treatment of choice for most benign stenoses, especially those of medium size (1-6 cm in length) in the absence of an acute inflammatory process.(1,2) Nevertheless, surgery is contra-indicated in the presence of comorbidities such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, heart disease, diabetes and other systemic disorders, as well as after restenosis from previous surgery. In all such cases, the placement of stents has become a reliable alternative.(3,4)
Currently, there are more than 100 models of stent, which are available in different sizes, shapes and materials.(5) It has also become clear that there is no one ideal stent type for all tracheal applications.(6,7) Rather, the best option is largely determined by the anatomy of the lesion and of the airway.(8) Concerning materials, self-expanding metal stents and silicone stents seem to be the most widely employed.(2,7)
We have recently described the development and in vivo testing of a Nitinol stent.(9) In the present paper, we report on the development of a silicone stent and in vivo testing of that stent for biocompatibility and applicability in the normal canine trachea.
Stent design
The silicone stent described here has been designated the HCPA-1 stent and is a modified version of the Dumon model.(10) The purported improvements are as follows: an external surface covered with discontinuous protruding arcs resembling the tracheobronchial rings (for intercalation and fixation in the lumen of the lower airways); a highly polished inner surface that prevents adhesion of dense mucus, blood or other materials from the respiratory tree; smooth extremities to decrease friction-related damage and the 'battering-ram' effect that can result from the impact of stent movement during breathing and coughing (Figure 1).
