Summa summa time is here and that means, you guessed it (I hope!), skin protection season.
Did you know there are foods that naturally protect your skin against UVA and UVB rays? This is important as skin cancer is the most common cancer and free radical production is activated after only 5 minutes of exposure to direct sunlight. Though these foods do not replace sunscreen, they do offer up some protection against Mr. Sun's feel-good rays. And the winners are:
Lycopene-containing foods. According to research published in the European Journal of Pharmaceutics and Biopharmaceutics, lycopene may help protect our skinski from sunburn. Tomatoes (contain a remarkable amount), pink grapefruit, papaya, carrots, watermelon, guava, apricots (fresh & dried but dried apricots contain more) and red peppers are all foods that naturally contain lycopene. In one such study, subjects exposed to ultraviolet light had nearly 50% less skin reddening if they had consumed 75 ml of tomato paste (or 420 ml of carrot juice) for 10-12 weeks prior to UV exposure. Interestingly, lycopene is further activated when consumed with fat (ex. olive oil) and the lycopene content of foods doubles when the foods are cooked. It is important to note that lycopene supplements aren't as efficacious as real foods at protecting our skin.
Vitamin C-containing foods. Vitamin C can help shoo away wrinkles and dryness related to age. Vitamin C-rich foods include: peppers (especially red), broccoli, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, guava, papaya, kiwifruit, oranges and lychee. You'll notice many of these vitamin-C rich foods also contain lycopene, as mentioned above.
Foods containing beta carotene. Beta carotene may reduce skin sensitivity. To get some beta carotene into you, nosh on sweet potatoes, peppers, squashes (pumpkin), spinach, cantaloup and carrots.
Soy. Foods like tofu, soy beverage and edamame beans contain isoflavones. Research is pointing towards the fact that isoflavones help prevent collagen breakdown (a fibrous protein that contributes to skin's firmness, that starts to break down in our 20s). Remember, it is best to go organic when purchasing soy-based foods.
Dark chocolate. As mentioned in my post on dark chocolate bark, chocolate with a high cocoa content increases oxygen and nutrients supplied to your skin by means of increased blood flow. Dark chocolate helps you protect the skin you're in.
Corn. Bingo! Corn is in season right about now! In the same manner as lycopene, the lutein contained in corn protects your skin against sun damage.
Coffee. Research suggests caffeine in tea and coffee could help guard your skin against skin cancer. According to Dr. Paul Nghiem, a dermatology prof at U. of Washington med school, caffeine kills skin cells that are precancerous and damaged by UV by inhibitting a protein they require for division.
Honourable mention: olive oil. Compounds in olive oil like vitamin E and polyphenols do not protect against the sun per se but help us self-repair once damage is done. Olive oil works best when applied directly to your skin.
An interesting study carried out by Australian and Swedish researchers compared lifestyle and signs of skin ageing for four groups: 1) Greek people living in Melbourne 2) Greek people living in Greece 3) Swedish people living in Sweden and 4) "anglo-Celtic" (of Irish or British descent) people living in Australia.The researchers evaluated diet and lifestyle of the subjects, all while assessing wrinkles and other signs of skin ageing using specialized equipment. The results? For equivalent sun exposure, food was the factor with the most impact on preventing or speeding up skin ageing. According to this study, vegetables, olive oil and legumes (chickpeas, lentils, etc) confer significant skin protection and can reduce signs of ageing by 20-32%. On the other hand, subjects who ate more meat, dairy and sugar showed the most signs of skin ageing.
Remember, these foods do not present a carte blanche to ditch sunscreen. Also remember that sunscreen can create a false sense of security, meaning that because we are protected, we might stay out in the sun longer than we should.
Now boost your body's natural defenses, why don't you? Stay safe, my friends.

text: (The following statement was released by the rating agency) LONDON, July 17 (Fitch) Fitch Ratings has assigned Lloyds Bank Corporate Markets plc (LBCM) and Lloyds Bank International Ltd (LBIL) expected Long-Term Issuer Default Ratings (IDR) of 'A(EXP)'. The Outlooks are Stable. A full list of rating actions is at end of this commentary. LBCM is wholly-owned by Lloyds Banking Group plc (LBG, A+/Stable/a) and will head the group's non-ring-fenced bank sub-group. This is in line with Prudential Regulation Authority requirements to implement ring-fencing rules by 1 January 2019. Under ring-fencing rules, banks with core deposits (mainly from individuals and SMEs) in excess of GBP25 billion are required to separate their core retail banking from investment or wholesale banking businesses. LBG's approach to ring-fencing is to maximise the size of its ring-fenced bank and maintain a small non-ring-fenced bank. This is driven by its largely commercial banking-focussed business model with moderate capital markets and trading activities. Fitch expects to assign final ratings on the successful implementation of LBG's planned restructuring, under which non-ring-fenced activities will be transferred into LBCM, and Jersey-based LBIL which will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of LBCM. KEY RATING DRIVERS IDRS, DERIVATIVE COUNTERPARTY RATING AND SUPPORT RATING LBCM's and LBIL's expected IDRs are equalised with LBG's 'a' Viability Rating (VR), reflecting our view of an extremely high probability of support for LBCM and LBIL by LBG, should it be required. This view also drives the expected Support Rating of '1(EXP)'. The IDRs are equalised with LBG's VR as opposed to LBG's IDR to reflect insufficient certainty that LBCM's and LBIL's senior creditors would benefit from LBG's qualifying junior debt buffer in a resolution of the group. This is primarily because we believe that in a resolution of the group the resolution authority's main objective would be the protection of senior creditors of LBG's ring-fenced bank. We believe that LBG would have a strong ability and propensity to support LBCM and LBIL, based on our expectation that support would be manageable for LBG given LBCM's and LBIL's small relative size (around 4% of end-2016 LBG Group loans) and the high reputational risk for LBG from allowing either entity to default. Fitch believes that LBCM will be a key and integral part of the group, and LBIL will be strategically important within the group. We expect that LBG would be the primary source of support for LBCM, and the ultimate source of support for LBIL, in the event that LBCM is unable to support LBIL on its own. Fitch does not assign VRs to LBCM or LBIL, due to our view that neither entity would have a meaningful standalone franchise without the ownership by LBG. An expected Derivative Counterparty Rating (DCR) has been assigned to LBCM due to its significant derivatives activity. The DCR is at the same level as the Long-Term IDR because derivative counterparties have no definitive preferential status over other senior obligations in a resolution scenario RATING SENSITIVITIES IDRS, DERIVATIVE COUNTERPARTY RATING AND SUPPORT RATING The IDRs and DCR of LBCM and LBIL's IDRs are equalised with LBG's VR and are therefore sensitive to changes in our assumptions around the propensity or ability of LBG to provide timely support. This could result from a change to LBG's VR, or to the strategic importance of these subsidiaries within the group. A material increase in the size of either entity could weaken LBG's ability to provide support and could result in a widening of notching between their IDRs and LBG's VR. A downgrade of LBG's VR would indicate a weakening of LBG's ability to support its subsidiaries and result in a downgrade of LBCM's and LBIL's IDRs. The prohibition or restriction by LBG's regulator to upstream dividends from the ring-fenced bank to support non-ring fenced entities could also result in a downgrade of both entities' IDRs. The rating actions are as follows: Lloyds Bank Corporate Markets plc Long-Term IDR assigned at 'A(EXP)'; Outlook Stable Short-Term IDR assigned at 'F1(EXP)' Support Rating assigned at '1(EXP)' Derivative Counterparty Rating assigned at 'A(dcr)(EXP)' Lloyds Bank International Ltd Long-Term IDR assigned at 'A(EXP)'; Outlook Stable Short-Term IDR assigned at 'F1(EXP)' Support Rating assigned at '1(EXP)' Contact: Primary Analyst Krista Davies Director +44 203 530 1579 Fitch Ratings Limited 30 North Colonnade London E14 5GN Secondary Analyst Marc Ellsmore Associate Director +44 203 530 1438 Committee Chairperson Patrick Rioual Senior Director +49 69 768076 123 Media Relations: Peter Fitzpatrick, London, Tel: +44 20 3530 1103, Email: firstname.lastname@example.com.

In issuing and maintaining its ratings and in making other reports (including forecast information), Fitch relies on factual information it receives from issuers and underwriters and from other sources Fitch believes to be credible. Fitch conducts a reasonable investigation of the factual information relied upon by it in accordance with its ratings methodology, and obtains reasonable verification of that information from independent sources, to the extent such sources are available for a given security or in a given jurisdiction. The manner of Fitch's factual investigation and the scope of the third-party verification it obtains will vary depending on the nature of the rated security and its issuer, the requirements and practices in the jurisdiction in which the rated security is offered and sold and/or the issuer is located, the availability and nature of relevant public information, access to the management of the issuer and its advisers, the availability of pre-existing third-party verifications such as audit reports, agreed-upon procedures letters, appraisals, actuarial reports, engineering reports, legal opinions and other reports provided by third parties, the availability of independent and competent third- party verification sources with respect to the particular security or in the particular jurisdiction of the issuer, and a variety of other factors. Users of Fitch's ratings and reports should understand that neither an enhanced factual investigation nor any third-party verification can ensure that all of the information Fitch relies on in connection with a rating or a report will be accurate and complete. Ultimately, the issuer and its advisers are responsible for the accuracy of the information they provide to Fitch and to the market in offering documents and other reports. In issuing its ratings and its reports, Fitch must rely on the work of experts, including independent auditors with respect to financial statements and attorneys with respect to legal and tax matters. Further, ratings and forecasts of financial and other information are inherently forward-looking and embody assumptions and predictions about future events that by their nature cannot be verified as facts. As a result, despite any verification of current facts, ratings and forecasts can be affected by future events or conditions that were not anticipated at the time a rating or forecast was issued or affirmed. The information in this report is provided "as is" without any representation or warranty of any kind, and Fitch does not represent or warrant that the report or any of its contents will meet any of the requirements of a recipient of the report. A Fitch rating is an opinion as to the creditworthiness of a security. This opinion and reports made by Fitch are based on established criteria and methodologies that Fitch is continuously evaluating and updating. Therefore, ratings and reports are the collective work product of Fitch and no individual, or group of individuals, is solely responsible for a rating or a report. The rating does not address the risk of loss due to risks other than credit risk, unless such risk is specifically mentioned. Fitch is not engaged in the offer or sale of any security. All Fitch reports have shared authorship. Individuals identified in a Fitch report were involved in, but are not solely responsible for, the opinions stated therein.

Ratings may be changed or withdrawn at any time for any reason in the sole discretion of Fitch. Fitch does not provide investment advice of any sort. Ratings are not a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any security. Ratings do not comment on the adequacy of market price, the suitability of any security for a particular investor, or the tax-exempt nature or taxability of payments made in respect to any security. Fitch receives fees from issuers, insurers, guarantors, other obligors, and underwriters for rating securities. Such fees generally vary from US$1,000 to US$750,000 (or the applicable currency equivalent) per issue. In certain cases, Fitch will rate all or a number of issues issued by a particular issuer, or insured or guaranteed by a particular insurer or guarantor, for a single annual fee. Such fees are expected to vary from US$10,000 to US$1,500,000 (or the applicable currency equivalent).

Chaos theory, Wikipedia tells us, "is the field of study in mathematics that studies the behavior of dynamical systems that are highly sensitive to initial conditions – a response popularly referred to as the butterfly effect." The butterfly effect refers to the flapping of a butterfly's wings having an impact on the creation of strong winds, maybe even a hurricane.
Events, I venture to say, are connected causally. (I don't believe in miracles.) We don't know enough to conclude that the world outside our heads is completely predetermined and that chaos is an illusion. But some want to overcome our limited knowledge and overcome uncertainties about the future with complex math formulas. Mathematicians try to calculate possibilities, probabilities, and improbabilities, and some have claimed that mathematics can capture the infinite complexity of nature. But t I am skeptical. All I can do is point to the French mathematician Jacques Hadamard (1865-1963), who made major contributions in number theory, complex function theory, differential geometry and partial differential equations. He argued that any solution exhibiting sensitive dependence (such as the flapping of butterfly wings) is a sign of a mathematical model that incorrectly describes its target system.

I'm a 3D artist, passionate about cartoon and focused on Character Rigging, currently working in the game industry on AAA games.
I love to give life to characters and make them believable, trying to push the boundaries of current technology, believing that, in a few years, movies and games will use the same character setups. In order to achieve these goals I often research and develop new procedures and tools, which is an activity I find extremely stimulating.
I have a diversified background, from traditional animation to architecture, which taught me an approach based on planning and attention to detail. I also worked for several years with kids, teaching them animation while they were teaching me how to always think outside the box.
I'm currently based in Stockholm, Sweden, working as Character Rigger for video games

Underwood to be Tasmania's new governor
Tasmania's chief justice Peter Underwood will be sworn in as the state's new governor next month succeeding William Cox.
Tasmanian Premier Paul Lennon announced Justice Underwood will become the state's 27th governor when he is sworn in on April 2.
It is not the first time he has replaced Mr Cox, having taken over from him in 2004 as the state's chief justice, when Justice Cox left that position to become governor.
Mr Lennon said in a statement that Justice Underwood's appointment as governor had the strong support of the state's Opposition parties.
The soon-to-be governor was appointed a Supreme Court judge in 1984 and has had an interest in judicial reform, including incorporating technologies in the court process, Mr Lennon said.
Mr Lennon paid tribute to Mr Cox, who took the position after it was embroiled in controversy by former governor Richard Butler.
Mr Butler, a staunch republican, former diplomat and UN weapons inspector, stepped down with a $650,000 payout after his 10 month stint as Tasmanian governor in August 2004.
He had fallen out with senior staff and had a series of public allegations of irregular behaviour made against him.
"Mr Cox became governor at a time when the office had become embroiled in controversy," Mr Lennon said.
"Mr Cox and his wife Jocelyn have restored dignity to the role of governor and on behalf of the people of Tasmania I thank them for that."
Justice Underwood served from 1989 to 1994 as chairman of the Board of Governors of the Friends' School and from 1997 to 2006 was chairman of the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra Board.
A Tasmania University graduate, he and his wife, Frances, have four children and three stepchildren.
His replacement as new chief justice is yet to be decided, a government spokeswoman said.
Justice Underwood's appointment comes just three months after he presided as judge over the criminal trial of former deputy premier Bryan Green, who was accused of signing an illegal deal with building accreditor, the Tasmanian Compliance Corporation.
That trial last December, in which Mr Lennon was called as a witness, ended in a hung jury. A retrial is due to start.

Further Information
George Sims, born in England 1923, was never a full-time
writer, as indeed many crime novelists held 'day jobs', so the books may
lack that slight professional polish. This is by no means damning as all
his work is well plotted and sits solidly in the suspense genre. There
are also some uncollected short stories, four editions of verse and a
few non-fiction titles.

Many people struggle with getting the midnight munchies, earlier on in the evening, so to speak. Be it boredom eating, emotional eating or actual hunger, there are many things that you can do to prevent frequent evening snacking. Here are a few pointers:
1) Analyze your daytime habits. Do you skip meals, forget to take mid-morning or mid-afternoon snacks (if necessary – you should try to eat every 3-4 hours for optimal appetite control) or are your meals imbalanced? If so, this can lead to actual hunger in the evening that causes you to snack, and let's be honest, usually it's not on the healthiest things.
2) Try to ask yourself if you are experiencing physical or psychological hunger. The difference?
Physical hunger: arrives gradually ("I'm not hungry", "I think I may be hungry", "Yup, I'm Hungry", "Boy oh boy am I Hungry", "Holy fruit loops, I'm extremely hungry", "I'm so hungry I could eat the furniture" would be the progression of your hunger), is due to the emptiness of your stomach, is a physiological response, results in satisfaction, you are physically uncomfortable, typically leads to more mindful eating.
If you are physically hungry, have a healthy snack, like a fruit with some nuts, a smoothie, a few squares of dark chocolate or try this delicious and calming tea.
Psychological hunger: arrives suddenly ("Oh me, oh my, I could eat the furniture", "I. need. to. eat. now."), stomach may be full, is a response to a sensory stimulus (the sight of food (i.e. chips, cookies, cheese, etc.), the smell of food, the idea of food), brings about a feeling of guilt, you are psychologically or emotionally uncomfortable (anxious or antsy at the thought of eating, or trying to control your sudden desire to eat), generally leads to more mindless eating (not knowing how many chips or cookies you have eaten, until, before you know it, you've had the whole bag of chips or a few rows of cookies).
If you are psychologically hungry, try to pinpoint how you are feeling. Are you stressed, angry, nervous, sad, happy or bored? If you manage to pinpoint the emotion, try to think about the root of your emotion and what a potential solution is. Will eating solve your problem? It may offer temporary relief and pleasure but when you finish eating, that emotion will still be there, and you may even feel worse. A good trick to employ when feeling "psychologically hungry" is to distract yourself or please yourself in ways that do not involve food: put music on your iPod (this is not product placement lol), read a good book, go for a brisk walk, watch a fascinating documentary, play Solitaire, knit, phone a friend or family member you wish you were closer to and enjoy speaking with, spend time with your kids, play a board game, whatever floats your boat. If you truly were psychologically hungry, your hunger should pass within the half hour. It is a grand idea to keep a food diary in which you can also incorporate an emotion log. You can then link certain food intake patterns to certain emotions and think about ways to circumvent this.
Other pointers:
- If you feel a craving coming your way, you may wish to brush your teeth, floss your teeth (your dentist will love you) and use mouthwash. People often don't feel like eating once they've done this.
- Stick post-its on foods you are often tempted by, on which you could write things like "Do I really need this?", "Am I really hungry?", "Am I hungry or emotional?", "Will this make me feel better?", whatever you think applies to you.
- If you tend to crave sweet foods, why not find sweet teas to replace the eating habit with a "drinking habit" that will help you up your fluid intake. My personal favourite is the Bengal Spice tea (orange + cinnamon) which tastes sweet but contains no sugar.
- If you find that you are an emotional eater, consider reading the book "Life is Hard, Food is Easy" by Linda Spangle. It explains how, from a young age, we develop an emotional relationship with food. The mere act of cooking up a home-cooked meal is an expression of our parents' love, or a way of showing us they care and thus a food can become a manner in which we show ourselves love. Or, it can be an outlet for self-hate and self-destruction. The book also explains how people tend to crave crunchy when they are stressed or angry and soft, fluffy foods when they are sad, lacking affection. I can attest to the validity of this as the other day, I opened up my pantry and mindlessly reached for some nacho chips. I then caught myself and asked myself, "Am I truly hungry, or am I mad at someone". Turns out, I was upset with someone, so instead contacted that person and attempted solving the problem". It's almost as if sometimes, when you reach for certain foods, it can be a sort of emotional barometer which makes you stop and ask yourself how you are feeling in that very moment. It can even help you be more in tune with your emotions. 🙂 The book also talks about how foods can be a comforting and constant presence in your life. Many people resort to food as it is one of the only stable elements in their chaotic and unpredictable lives. The book offers up many solutions and "case-studies" to which you may be able to relate.

- If you've had a bad day (nutrition-wise) and think "Whatever, I've eaten poorly all day so I might as well continue to do so into the evening", know that that is like saying "Hey, I dropped my phone on the floor, but instead of picking it up, I will jump on it until it explodes into bits and pieces". Life goes on, pick yourself up, dust yourself off and continue on with your efforts. If anything, occasionally falling off the bandwagon only proves that you're human (which is a good thing 🙂 ).
Emotional eating or evening snacking once in a while isn't that huge of a problem at all, but if it happens often, then it can become problematic not only for weight management but also for your health. It can also mean you are not emotionally attuned. I sincerely hope these pointers can aid you to better pick up on and listen to your body's hunger, satiety and emotional signals.

Doctors and scientists have found that happiness
helps cure some
illnesses. Not long ago, I heard of a group that met and laughed for an
hour at a time for healthier hearts.
Hannah prayed for a child and God sent Samuel to her.
When he was
weaned she took him to the house of the Lord, and there he remained the
rest of his life
We read in Psalm 32:11," So rejoice in the Lord and be
glad, all who obey Him! Shout for joy, all you whose hearts are pure! "
But there is a happiness in which a faithful
Christian is assured
of. That happiness would be the reward that awaits each Christian,
found by the Lord, to have lived faithful unto death.

Wusthof Five Blade Herb Scissors
The best feature of the blades is without doubt the edge. It is really sharp. They include a sheath for safe in-drawer storage and to clean the blades between uses.
The handles are made of a soft plastic material and are comfortable to use.
Of course the same objections to other multi-blade shears applied to the Wusthof herb scissors. A lot of blades mean in general a lot of flimsy blades. But you note it a bit less with these scissors than with other brands. A lot of blades equal to more places for the chopped herbs to hide. Hence washing could be annoying. Especially if you are a perfectionist. But be sure to clean them ASAP. Waiting only turns the chore more difficult.
The best way to use them is not to be too enthusiastic with the quantity you try to cut at a time. Besides they always function better with dry herbs than with herbs recently cut or wet for washing.
Overall, they are a pretty good rendition of the concept of herb scissors, a notch above in quality over other well known brands.
- Model: 8777
- 3 1/4"L (9" w/handles) x 3/4"W
- Weight: 8 oz.
- Made in China
As usual you can check they price and read more reviews at amazon.

MarWatch Can Now Monitor ANY Device
By monitoring Mitel voice quality, MarWatch users know when there is a problem. Now, by monitoring the complete infrastructure, they have better insight into where the problem originates.
Who are Martello Technologies?
Martello Technologies is the leading provider of fault and performance management capabilities for Mitel business communications solutions. Today, they announced that its MarWatch software now supports monitoring of virtually any device, using SNMP and SSH protocols.
What does this update mean for customers?
By delivering greater insight into the source of voice quality problems on the network, this capability dramatically expands the value of the software for Mitel service providers and channel partners. MarWatch 5.1, released today, also adds to its Mitel-specific device support capabilities and introduces a new remote IP set testing tool.
While the software specializes in sophisticated performance management for Mitel systems, it can now also monitor the devices in the surrounding network, such as session border controllers, IP DECT gateways, multi-vendor PBX systems and VMWare. Consolidating multi-vendor monitoring systems into one advanced interface, MarWatch SNMP monitoring is simple to configure and use. To learn more, watch the short 'Monitor ANY device' video.
What does Arden have to say?
Longstanding channel partner Arden Group recently expanded their product and service portfolio. MarWatch has now become even more valuable:
"We can now proactively monitor all of the products Arden Group provides its customers with a single platform – MarWatch. Every IP-CCTV camera, every IP Phone – in fact, any IP-enabled device. Without the proactive performance management solution we have in MarWatch, it would be impossible for us to offer high quality managed services to our customers", said Stefan Bagiensky, Principal Technologist, Arden Group
"We know that when a voice quality problem occurs on Mitel systems, it is usually traced back to a fault in a surrounding network device", said Martello VP of R&D Doug Bellinger. "Monitoring the entire infrastructure simplifies problem detection, and helps Mitel partners to win more business and drive revenues".
Today's release also expands Mitel device support to include MiVoice MX-ONE SIP set voice quality monitoring, MiVoice Border Gateway R9 SIP teleworker voice quality, and MiVoice Business SIP trunk utilization/traffic monitoring. The MarWatch R5.1 Detailed Feature Summary offers a complete description of what's new in MarWatch 5.1.

We are about to embark on our first festival of the season- I am so excited about making plans. I'm not the only one who loves to make these lists, surely?!
When it comes to getting our camping kit together, happy memories leap off the tin plates and who doesn't love a gadget? The kit to me is all part of the fun.
Also, these days we want to be comfortable- once upon a time we probably just used our tent as a place to collapse into slumber.
Times and expectations have changed. Seeing every band isn't going to happen- trying to do too much can result in meltdown central so we pick our favourites and are prepared to make compromises. Take turns doing what each person in the family wants or tag team childcare with a partner/ friend is a good idea if you can. We can still do this, just in a different way.
There might be times when you take the kids out into the fresh, night air- an evening of magic lying ahead of you.
Then the kids might vomit/ wee everywhere/ jump in a massive puddle which is actually cow poo- and you have to retreat back to your tent wondering why you bothered to try to have fun in the first place? All is not lost- put on your big girl pants and claw it back. If I can, you can.
Festivals with children ARE different beasts, but being organised helps and flouting normal routines catapults everyone into holiday mode. Relax, let everyone get filthy and explore whilst staying safe: you will find that the magic can still happen as you see the place unfold through their eyes.
Safety and security:
Losing a child is every parents' worst nightmare. It probably won't happen though- and if it does there's a few things you can do to help.
Firstly, introduce your child to a steward- show them what a high-vis looks like and tell them to find one of these kind people if they get lost. OR find another Mummy who will help. Either is good.
I take a permanent marker with me, and write both parents numbers on their arm- in case one phone is out of reception/ battery has died. In truth I have never needed to use this, as the one time I DID lose a child, the security/ steward team radioed their colleagues ahead and found the youngest in just a few terrifying minutes. Yes, it felt like hours.
Valuables: just be sensible. Don't flash your ipad in the door of your tent etc. Pop it into the lock up if you have to bring it.
Ear defenders for the children are ESSENTIAL. Keep them in the wagon- you never know when a marching band/ banging Jungle set might kick off around you. If this does happen, you'll shock yourself at how fast you can move…
Next is my favourite subject: KIT. What to bring?! kicking off my list, I am starting with the essentials:
If you can get a tent you can stand up in, it makes things so much more comfortable- when was the last time you tried to put on jeans on one leg whilst wobbling on an air bed?
Our tent is canvas, which is heavy, but means it doesn't get overly hot in the morning sun and it stays stable in wind.
You could always opt for a caravan or campervan- though as these fields tend to be further away we often opt for the tent.
Children's transport:
Whatever you choose to save those little legs, make sure it is all terrain as small wheels get clogged up easily.
We have used just about everything in our time- wheel barrow (Back breaking,) red waggon (for us this resulted in an emergency trip to the chiropractor on our return…) mountain buggy (great) and cycle trailer (even better as the rain cover made it like a little wendy house)
All the above help you carry your kit and give your children a portable chill-out space. I used to fill the side pockets with sticker books and torches for the children to play with when they got bored between bands in the evenings.
If your child is young, slings are best in crowds- but if you do take a buggy out at night remember to decorate it with fairy lights and flags. People tend to crowd into a space if they don't see something at head height! Make your buggy stand out so it doesn't get fallen on. It happened to us several times before we embraced the bling.
Self inflating mattresses are essential in my book. Less trampoline- like so last well beyond the first night.
Our children love their sleeping bags- us adults like a light duvet.
Don't forget your pillows and blankets for cosying up around the campfire.
Wellies, over trousers and anoraks are essential for the whole family.
Bring layers to wear for the evening and clean clothes for each day. You'd be surprised how mucky you get having fun- face paints, sun screen, ice cream, and if it is a wet year, putting on muddy trousers from the day before is really really horrible…
Kitchen stuff:
Gas stove- ours is in a carry case, which works great as we try to cook 1 pot meals anyway.
Cool box to keep food cool- beyond the first day everything will be thawed out.. so we use it to store open food away from ants and rodents.
Frying pan
Camping plates,
1 sharp knife, tongs and spatula.
Kitchen towels
Washing up sponge & liquid
Black bin liner
Water carrier
Bucket/ washing up bowl
Festival food can be expensive and unhealthy. We try to get as much fruit and veg into the kids as we can before letting them loose at the pizza van.
Jars of hot dog sausages
Bread rolls or tortilla wraps
Pasta & pesto
Tinned sweetcorn and peas
Eggs for scrambling
Baked beans
UHT or powdered milk
Coffee for adults! (it's a festival- you could pop a slug of brandy on there if you wanted. Go on, treat yourself.)
Fruit (nothing too fragile- apples and bananas are always a favourite)
Boxes of raisins and dried fruit
Fruit juice cartons- freeze these ahead of the event to use as ice packs in your cool box.
Flapjacks/ cereal bars
Posh Crisps (for when the kids go to sleep…)
Other stuff
Torches (one each is easiest)
Pen knife
String/ cable ties/ Gaffer tape
Ear plugs for adults- ear defenders for children, see above.
Picnic blanket
Permanent marker (for writing your phone number on your childrens' arms. If you don't like doing this, you can write with biro and paint over the top with a liquid/ spray plaster)
Fully charged power bank- you'll be gutted if you can't take pictures of all the fun you're having.
Toothbrushes, toothpaste, flannel, soap, towel
Wet wipes- though we are trying to do without these this year after learning about their negative impact on the environment… wish us luck.
Hair brush
Hand sanitiser
Toilet roll
POTTY. Ok, a bucket with a lid on.….. it's not just for the kids either- I don't like a long walk in the middle of the night or getting up early to take the boys for their first wee of the day. Once I got over the embarrassment of taking my bucket to the loo in the morning, I never looked back. Trust me, it's worth it.
First aid kit; plasters, antiseptic wipes, calpol, piriton, dioralyte, paracetamol (for adult headaches just in case you get one)
Now you've got the practicalities sorted, its time for the fun bits- none of which is STRICTLY essential, but may give you some fun ideas.
Fancy dress/ dressing up gear
Face paints
Temporary tattoos
Flag and telescopic flag pole. Put this by your tent so you/ the kids can find it easily in the crowded campsite.
Solar fairy lights- for the same reason.
Fake flowers/ bunting for decorating the camp/ buggy/ yourself.
Glow sticks (for night times)
And last but by no means least, don't forget the quiet games/ activities. However much fun you are having, it can get overwhelming. Sensory overload IS A THING, so make sure you have a few activities for the tent. Drawing stuff, Uno, activity books and a few bits of lego usually does it for us. Also if you have space take a football. Last Nozstock, the children of the family field had a massive football match whilst the adults all kicked back with a nice (warm!?) beer… it was sweet joy to behold.
So now you're set. Remember though, whatever you forget someone onsite will probably be selling it, so don't get too stressed out or bogged down by the 'stuff'. Most of what you need is normal everyday things- don't let the fact it is a 'festival' send you into a panic.
Hopefully with this list though, you should be all set. All you need now is to throw off the shackles of daily life, grab your dancing shoes and you're good to go.
See you in a field somewhere, we'll be to the right of the mixing desk, yeah?

GAYLORD - "The police and prosecution are highly disappointed at the inconsistent and incomplete decision of the jury," Otsego County Prosecutor Kevin Hesselink said in a Monday press release announcing a hung jury in two of the five charges against 61-year-old Thomas Frank Urban.
"Two police officers literally put their lives at stake in this case and yet credence was not given to that sacrifice," Hesselink remarked in the release, adding he will retry Urban on those counts.
After more than 10 hours of deliberations, which began Thursday afternoon, a jury of eight men and four women arrived at a split verdict Friday around 10 p.m. in the trial of Urban. Five charges had been leveled at the Gaylord man who was on trial for three days for allegedly assaulting his wife, Gail Urban, and two troopers from the Michigan State Police Gaylord post in September, 2003.
While Urban was found guilty of one count of assault with a dangerous weapon, a four-year felony, in which he allegedly threatened his wife with a rifle, a hung jury resulted in the most serious of the charges - one count of assault with intent to commit murder. A hung jury also resulted on the charge of felony firearm. If Urban had been found guilty of the assault with intent to commit murder charge, he could have been sentenced to life in prison.

KODAK Portra 400 – Miami South Beach FL – Pushed to 3200 | CANLAS PHOTOGRAPHY
25/02/2011 Comments Off on KODAK Portra 400 – Miami South Beach FL – Pushed to 3200 | CANLAS PHOTOGRAPHY
If you are not a photographer, the following info might be a bit geeky…so get ready.
Back in Nov I traveled out to Miami to hang out with Ozzy and Gennessy to do a 1on2 workshop with them. During my time there, I shot nothing but the new Kodak Portra 400. And I pushed a couple rolls to 3200, which means I rated it as if it was 3200 iso, and pushed it 3 stops in the developing (to compensate for underexposing 3 stops). I sent the film off to Richard Photo Lab in LA and the results are nothing short of astonishing.
THERE IS NO GRAIN TO THIS FILM, NONE. At 3200 that is UNHEARD of. This changes EVERYTHING about shooting color film, EVERYTHING. Another great thing about this film is that you don't need to overexpose as much like you would with other color neg films. If you overexpose too much, it goes super yellow.
This film uses Vision 3 technology (motion picture film) and you can actually underexpose this film up to 2 stops. This is UNHEARD of in any color neg film out there today. Hello low light situations!
It is also available in 220 as well, making it one of the last color neg films available in 220 format.
I have liquidated all other color neg film and this is now my film of choice. It is the answer to all your needs for color neg and the results are nothing short of outstanding.
More posts coming next week. For now, enjoy.

1. Get a Governnace department going or identifying the individual that will be responsible for all data governance functions. A strong leadership in this area makes sure that value of data is conveyed to all quarters of the organization from top down. This person is reponsible not only about conveying that value but implementing stewardship policies that govern this important asset.
2. Identifying the redundancies and cutting the cost. The second step may be identifying the redundancies of data that comes in and flow through and churns out into information for decision making or value addition. If redundancies can be identified and eliminated that will bring costs down in maintaining that data. Focus areas will be resulting in more ease of accessing and storing of information and operational efficiency among staff.
3. Calculate the value of data in terms of its relation to your P&L. This is a metric function that the governance guy is responsible for. The value of data just like any other corporate asset changes over time based upon internal and external (market) conditions. This value is calculated based on the cost of IT services internal users pay for and value generated by revenues in terms of support or valu-addition.
4. Calculating Risk is next important step because it is an indicator how data may be compromised, loses it value in the future or losing its relevance. The strategies in this step involved combing the previous two steps in knowing what are internal operational inefficiences as well as exteranl operational threats that may be a risk for the data you are governning. This step involves also in calcualting the probability of risk and management of risk in terms of using tools of business intelligence, analyzing trends, past envents forecasting and overall policy management.
5. Implementation of Controls. This step involves the operational controls that you put in place for the stewardship of data. No one is excluded every corporate citizen internally is responsible and answerable to these policies. Practice often states that policy making at the top level tend to break their own rules of data governance controls and hence set themselves up for a fall. Controls should be routinely evaluaed in processes, process flows, information gathring and dissemination and if creating a bottleneck review and change over.
6. Finally Moniotring the efficiency of your controls .The last step is overlapped by step 5 in the sense so much of data governance is more a organizatioal response behavior that boils down to individual following the policies of data stewarship. Monitoring the control in place is thus more than just reviewing of the controls, it revewing of the people and expressing corrective measures in behavioral changes. This is where data governance becomes more that about data security, compliance and managing or assessing or risk. It is a compsoite discipline that bridges organizational functions and starategic management to ensure organizations own continuity in the marketplace.
Thoughts on important steps for successful data governance.

May you continue to look ahead to that day when He shall break bread and drink the fruit of the vine with you in His Kingdom
(1Co 11:23) For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:
(1Co 11:24) And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. "Do this to call Me (Affectionately) to remembrance."
(1Co 11:25) After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. "Do this, as often as you drink (it), to call Me (affectionately) to remembrance."
(1Co 11:26) For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.
As believers in Jesus Christ we have so much to be grateful for as we, by faith, continue to partake of His life.
Many believe we have entered a time of maturing in the WATCHMAN anointing.
To watch means to look out, to peer into the distance, to investigate or get a new scope on something, to see an approaching danger (II Kings 9:17-18) and WARN those endangered,
To Watch also means to review and evaluate your household (Prov. 31:27),
or to SEE so you can GUARD your FUTURE. Many believe God wants to restore the actual WATCHES so His people can see things never seen before.
God is reordering our day so we can enter into His time frame and experience the power of seeing what He sees. What does reorder mean? As we give order to our prayers, He will order our steps. As we watch with the Lord, He will begin to reorder the time frame of our day. Order is the opposite of confusion. Order means to set in a straight row, with a fixed or definite plan, linked with the law of arrangement and the sequencing of events. Order is a state or condition in which everything is in its right place and functioning properly. Order is a request, commission, command, direction, or instruction.
Order is linked with everything we are about. As we watch, God is reordering our day.
The early Christians considered it a normal part of life to observe regular Prayer Watches.
The giving of the tithe (2hr.40min.) of twenty four hour day can be done during the four prayer watches of the night.
These prayer watches were designed to maintain the practice of offering God a continual sacrifice of praise and prayer.
1st Prayer Watch: Evening Watch---6pm-9pm
2nd Prayer Watch: Midnight Watch---9pm-12pm
3rd Prayer Watch: Breaking of a Day (Cockcrowing)Watch---12 midnight-3am
4th Prayer Watch: The Morning Watch-A New Day Dawning—3am- 6am
God says,
"Take back the night it belongs to Me."

CommerceBlock & BIP175, first ICO with a BIP, bringing bitcoin to the banking world.
CommerceBlock looks to be one of the more innovative token sales this year.It's combination of a team with wide industry experience (founders from JPMorgan, Merrill Lynch and Zoc Doc) implementing technology widely supported in the crypto community has culminated in BIP175.
While Bitcoin has become a worldwide decentralised currency, when it comes to trade or barter we are still dependent on entities such as ebay or Amazon and the central banks. Because of privacy concerns, banks cannot connect private data with a public blockchain. Banks are in competition with one another and privacy must be their priority.
This problem can be solved through technology developed by CommerceBlock. As API vendors, they are totally transparent and accountable without insisting on any controlling influence.
"Our tech is there to bridge the old world with the new" Nicholas Gregory, CEO
Having worked in commodities trading and in the OTC space, and with support from the Bitcoin community, the CommerceBlock team have developed a contract to hash implementation. The intention is for this to be an open standard application available to other users. The CommerceBlock team have created an open standard BIP which can safely connect private data with a public blockchain. Rather like the intranets of the early 2000s the private blockchains created by banks are unnecessary. Decentralised finance has arrived!
"We strongly believe that technological proposals should be peer reviewed" Omar Shibli, CTO
BIP175 is now in draft form. The CommerceBlock team and community still have some ground to cover in order for BIP to become an industry standard. We are in a new era for ICOs and hopefully more of these type of projects will submit themselves for peer review before attempting fundraising. Transparency and peer review are essential in order for investors to know where they are placing their funds.
CommerceBlock can be one of the biggest success stories of the year. They bridge the gap between public blockchains such as Bitcoin/Ethereum and existing financial systems and has the potential to bring cryptocurrency to the mainstream.

text: The thought of an invisible girl sounded really awesome to me. The thought of her father using her was disturbing to me and I needed to know more. This was an intriguing book to me. There are people with extra powers due to a certain drug that is now illegal. The concept was great, and I thought it was done pretty well. What I had a hard time with was a few of the characters. I thought that it was almost rushed through also, but I do understand that books tend to be that way sometimes so it's not like a million pages long.Okay so Fiona is invisible and her and her mother have run off. Her father wants to take things too far and she's not willing to do what he wants her to do. You don't defy him though whether you are family or not. She is at a new school with people she doesn't know and of course people know who she is and don't know what to think of her. She makes a few really great friends and is now welcome in their "pack". I liked that she was really worried about their well being and she didn't want to get too close, not because of her own walls, but because she didn't want them to become a target for her father. She did struggle with her own issues, but she really had a good heart and wanted to be a good person.There is a love interest, or two actually, but I'm not going to go into that. It is a part of the story, but honestly it was also more of a way to move the plot and the real stuff along. More than anything, she has friends and she likes it where she is. She doesn't want to run away from her problems. She wants to stay and stand up for herself and what is right. There are a few twists and things to keep this interesting too.The audio for me wasn't great and I was glad that I had a physical copy to fall back onto. I listened to most of it on audio and the narrator did a great voice for Fiona, but I cringed at some of the male voices, especially Carlos. That is one of the reasons that I was glad to switch to reading the book instead. I tend to be picky about how female narrators do male voices so that's just how I felt. It might not be as hard for other people to listen to.Overall I did really like the book though. I liked the whole super powers thing and the different people who were in charge of each area. I thought that it was creative, fun, and had quite a bit of action. It was explained well how people got their super powers too, which is very important to me. I don't like when there is no why to things. Most of the characters didn't really do much for me and they all were just kind of there, but I did like Fiona. This was an enjoyable book that I had fun reading and listening to.* A copy of this book was provided by the publisher for an honest review. I did not receive any compensation.

The Old Man and The Ass An Old Man and his Ass were riding one day And spied a lush meadow at the side of the way. The man let go the reins and the grizzled* one raced Out into the lea at a furious pace. Gamboling, scratching, enjoying the green, Rubbing his back and eating the spot clean. Some robbers showed up while the field he cleared. "Come, let us flee!" said the frightened graybeard. "Why should I" responded the debauchee. "Will you not make me carry a double load?" "Not at all!" said the man as he fled down the road. "What difference to me who uses the goad. Save yourself. I'll graze. You'll run faster. A beasts enemy is always its master. And this I say to you in a very Frank* manner. * Grizzled in the original is Grison, Frank is Francois. This is, I think, a play on words. Grison is a Canton in Switzerland which was originally created by the Franks during the reign of Charlemagne (800s A.D.), Apparently there was still some tension between the two groups (at least in folklore) some centuries later. ============================================== Le Vieillard et l'Ane Un Vieillard sur son Ane aperçut en passant Un Pré plein d'herbe et fleurissant. Il y lâche sa bête, et le Grison se rue Au travers de l'herbe menue, Se vautrant, grattant, et frottant, Gambadant, chantant et broutant, Et faisant mainte place nette. L'ennemi vient sur l'entrefaite : Fuyons, dit alors le Vieillard. - Pourquoi ? répondit le paillard. Me fera-t-on porter double bât, double charge ? - Non pas, dit le Vieillard, qui prit d'abord le large. - Et que m'importe donc, dit l'Ane, à qui je sois ? Sauvez-vous, et me laissez paître : Notre ennemi, c'est notre Maître : Je vous le dis en bon François.

Also, here is a fantastical amazing blog I found with loads of great information on animating, it's Synchrolux by Kevin Koch.

More Inbetweens...
Here's my entry again, with a few more inbetweens... I get a better feel for what it will look like here but it's still pretty sparse. I've been trying to figure out spacing. Trying to animate as if I could pass this off to an inbetween artist or cleanup artist and it be straightforward enough. Finding much information on spacing is tricky! Surprising since it is so critical. The animation process is much faster at least now, the inbetweens and breakdowns... Since the guts are more or less there already with my main poses. I need to get much faster though.

Are You Double Minded About Your Current AffairIt is a common problem encountered while dating these days. You would have just broken up with your boy friend and suddenly someone else would seem to be Mr. Perfect for you. But, your conscious mind would be tormenting you, leaving you double minded. It makes you confused whether to go on with the current relation or think about how to get your ex boyfriend back.
The best remedy to this is to first identify if you are under a delusion or whether your ex-boyfriend really wants you back. Most ladies ignore improper behaviour from their lovers because of their craze for them. But are you sure it is worth all the pain to keep loving him? If you want to know whether you are his special person or not, it is time that you start looking out for signs. If a man is the least bothered about a woman, it is not that hard to find it out.
An uninterested guy would keep breaking his promises, be it about a call or day out for dinner. He would not take much pain to take you out on a good date or even try to make an impression for that matter. Such a guy would call you at times comfortable for him rather than checking your convenience too.

- Here I'm applying the make-up for Maija's hands for the first part of the video,
as her hands are becoming more like plaster and stiff.
As you can see there's a lot of materials and brushes and palettes around me and most of them were used on various occasions.
I also did the overall make-ups for the video.

takes some folks by surprise, the majority of firings are widely expected. That's the case we have with Andy Reid, who has been fired by the Eagles after serving as their head coach for fourteen years. We all have expected Reid to get the ax for several weeks now as the Eagles completely fell apart as it was apparent that the Eagles needed a change at the top to go forward.
That said, Reid is only 54 years old and did have a very successful tenure in Philadelphia, becoming the most successful coach in team history, so like Jeff Fisher, he will have another job if he wants it, perhaps as soon as next season. So what is next?
When looking for potential matches for Reid, the first team that comes to mind is the San Diego Chargers. Reid is a Southern California native and thus taking on the Chargers job would be a bit of a homecoming for him. Also, he may find it intriguing to work with Philip Rivers, who has seen his play slip a little bit over the past few years but is still a very talented qaurterback and still in his prime. Also, the Chargers have a vacancy at the general manager slot due to A.J. Smith finally getting fired and thus San Diego would be able to give Reid the kind of decision making ability with regards to personnel that he had in Philadelphia. Plus, it has been reported by Albert Breer that the Chargers have hired former Packers general manager Ron Wolf as a consultant and it is important to note that Reid was an assistant with the Packers for much of Wolf's tenure.
The Chargers do appear to be the favorite but with the high number of jobs available, Reid will have his options. There have been some reports that the Cardinals could be a potential fit for Reid and there he would have essentially a blank slate at quarterback due to the disastrous play at that position there in the desert, although there would also be a Kevin Kolb reunion with Reid, for what that's worth. Rumor has it that Jaguars owner Shad Kahn will be willing to open up the checkbook to lure Reid to the River City, if Reid were to be interested in that job, which is not even open yet. The new president of the Cleveland Browns in Joe Banner, who was the president of the Eagles for much of Reid's tenure, so there is a potential connection there and who knows, maybe Reid could be intrigued by the Chiefs and their top overall selection in the draft.
But since Reid could practically pick what job he wants, he also could take a year off if he does not find a job to his choosing, like Fisher did last year. And who knows, with the turmoil that went through his family after his son tragically died over the summer, Reid may want that year off. He has said, though, that he does want to coach next year, so we shall see what will develop.

A month after the Apple In-Ear with Remote and Mic came out, I've thought of getting it. I considered it as my most ideal set of headphones. I prefer in-ear over regular earphones because it helps block most of the environmental noise i hear when I'm out and about. With regular earphones I have to crank up the volume when I'm listening to podcasts or audiobooks, and that's not good for my already damaged ears.
The remote lets me control playback and volume while keeping the 2G iPod touch in my pants pocket. The mic is an added plus: it'll give me the chance to play with iPhone/iPod touch apps that requires a microphone.
But there was a problem. Back when the Apple In-Ear with Remote and Mic came out, Apple indicated that it only worked with the latest iPod touch (second generation) and not with the iPhone 3G. That got me worried because I was already planning my move to the next generation iPhone and I wasn't sure that the Apple In-Ear was going to work with it. (In retrospect, It was foolish of me to think that Apple would actually make a new product that won't compatible with an already existing product. Duh me.)
I was going to sell my iPod touch and mobile phone to help offset the cost but keep the In-Ear and use it with the iPhone.
Since I wasn't sure I decided not to get the Apple In-Ear with Remote and Mic. I didn't want to take the risk. I did find a Sony MDR-EX85LP at Gaisano Mall. It worked well enough and it was a steal when I got it (at least I think it was).
A few months later, this came out:
I've checked out the specs, watched the WWDC '09 keynote, read all the reviews, and looked at the videos and photos taken with the iPhone 3GS. I like the iPhone 3GS. I think it has most of the things that I need from a smartphone. Since the release of the iPhone 3GS wasn't simultaneous in all 80 plus countries, I have to wait. During the two week wait, I had a nagging feeling that I was forgetting something.
It was only last night that a thought struck me and I decided to check it out on Apple's Online Store.
Lo and behold!
I have confirmation that the Apple In-Ear with Remote and Mic will work with the iPhone 3GS.
Joy! I just might get the in-ear after all.
Still, I have to wait for the announcement from Globe about the iPhone 3GS. Apple indicated during the WWDC '09 keynote that the new iPhone will hit the Philippines (plus 30 other countries) by July.
So, there's the waiting, and of course, there's this:
Ack! The price of geekery.
